European Adventure Day 1:
Flight from KC to DFW was very smooth! Arrived early so had lots of time to get to next terminal & gate! We had to wait there due to a maintenance issue with the plane so took off an hour late! Got to Philadelphia in time to grab a bite to eat & board our next plane for Venice! Long flight (8 hours) with very little rest however got to watch a couple of movies so that was fun! We arrived here in Venice at about 10:00 a.m. Which was 3:00 am our time! We bought our tickets to the alilaguna ( a boat line that makes several stops between town & the airport!)
James here - We had a rookie boat driver who ran into several posts by each dock or sometimes the dock itself. We were REALLY REALLY!! glad to FINALLY reach our hotel. The room is beautiful with exposed beam ceilings and a nice chandelier in the middle. The curtains are draped at the top very Victorian style. Our room looks right out on a bridge that goes over a canal where they have gondola rides. I am going to take Cindy on one later for her birthday. Isn't it great how God created us so just a little bit of sleep can make such a difference!! I am getting hungry so I am going to get ready to go get some grub.

Joni I love reading about your fun!!!
Jon Awesome! Enjoy the nice big room before getting on the cruise ship! Can't wait to hear about the gondola ride. Try some "mozzarella di bufala" if you get a chance. It's tasty stuff.
Annie Yay! Sounds like you guys are having fun! Hope your gondola ride was awesome! Love you guys!
