There's just so much to love about this! First of all, I love Italy and lived there for a little while in a town north of Venice, outside Aviano. Everything that you have said is so true and even though the water was so dirty I was afraid I would die if I fell in it oh, it was one of the most romantic cities I've ever been in. I'm not sure what this says about me but rest assure, the Gondolier singing Into the Night as he is navigating the Waterway was an experience that I will never forget.

Your pictures are incredibly delicious looking! Just scrolling through them has made me homesick to go back. It's funny but I don't think I can ever go back enough. I want to thank you so much for sharing your most incredible experience with us. Italy is an amazing country and Venice it is one of its highlights I'm not sure if you got a chance to go to Florence while you were there but that is another place that there just is not enough time in your year to see everything. It goes without saying that Rome has the same alluring voice calling to you. I had a medal blessed by the Pope when I was born and to this day still wear it.

Again, your pictures are absolutely spectacular and that is so kind of you to share the beauty of Venice. I love the squid done that way! Thanks for the recipe!

Thank you so much for taking the time to join the challenge and for taking me to Venice!!! How cool! I appreciate the love and support you are giving to #MarketFriday! Without you and people like yourself, I wouldn't be able to have such a successful challenge! I know that at this time, it is harder to find something to fit the challenge. On a good day, it takes a lot of time and effort to be part of, so it means a lot to me that you participate. I hope you know that there is great latitude in what Market means. It can be typical of where you shop for food, or it can be a unique place that you visit. Thank you again for being a part of all this and I hope that you will, indeed, have a great day and week ahead! So many people ask about the rules! If you or any of your friends are in doubt about how to participate, this should clear it all up! Of course, you have never had a problem. This is in case we can snag one of your friends!

I love Italy! This was my second trip. I had a longer vacation time the first time I went and was able to visit Firenze and the neighboring cities. I also took the train and boat ride for an overnight stay on the island of Capri! On that first trip, I was able to visit other parts of Europe, whereas last year, I just stayed in Italy primarily in Venezia and Rome to celebrate the Easter Tridium at the Vatican with the Holy Father.
I feel closer to you after you have shared a bit about your stay in Italy! We probably walked the same streets on Venezia ... isn't that incredibly amazing!!!!
Have a wonderful FOURTH, my beautiful friend @dswigle, and take care 🥰🌺🤙! I so appreciate you much!

That is awesome! I lived in Germany in the Eifel area also and in Holland. My kids think they are European. :) The train from Venezia to Firenze is an easy hop, but, I learned early to never wait until the last train home... Once, the train just never showed up and a compassionate station attendant found another train that would bring us close to where we needed to be. Oh, yes! They do things on their own agenda, but, you gotta love it there!

I have spent years in and around Europe and I will say that because of this pandemic, I am glad I did so much travel already. I got home right before they shut the borders down!

Yikes!

But, I was truly glad I made it to South America this winter. I hope you are enjoying your 4th of July! We are laying low for ours this year, simple picnic and BBQ.

Have a wonderful day!
