We are on the train with no Wi-Fi, but we did get little bottles of sparkling wine … with no glasses! Pictures tomorrow. Schüss!

Ciao, Venice … Soon, Anyway …
Today we check out of our Venice inn. We will still have time to spend here, since our train is a night train. Initially we assumed we’d have to fly out of Venice to go to our next destination and then Rome2Rio did show another option: night train! It’s less expensive than the plane, and it meant that we could have more time — a full day, really — in Venice. I think the train is also easier to get to, so that’s another plus. I have no idea, though, if I’ll have good wifi access so it’s possible photos will have to wait until the next city. We’ll see.
Today is a very humid day here, so our plan is to take things slowly. Some year we are going to travel during shoulder season and not deal with this. (We’ve been saying that for years about our travels to New York, too. We’ve just had to work with Dan’s teaching schedule (but now that’s not an issue) and my symphony and opera schedule. So it goes.
Anyway, we say goodbye today to our room in Venice. It’s been fun to have a canal view, and the room was quite spacious. (And that loud music from last night DID end at a decent time. Whew!)
