We just arrived at the hotel, and I thought I'd make a quick post...

The last time I posted, I think, was in Rome. Since then, we left Rome and traveled by train to Venice. The train was good, not great...not too much to see, and fairly expensive....

Venice was grand!!!! We moved around by vaporetto....a series of boats that carry people from stop to stop along the Grand Canal. The first 2 days were perfect...not too warm, but sunny. The last day (today) was getting hot, and tomorrow is supposed to be as well....not a good combo...heat and LOTS of water *smile*. We walked and walked (got lost a few times...but then just headed for St. Mark's square, and everything was fine). Last night, Hans got his pocket picked...thank goodness he was only carrying his ATM (needs a PIN) and a small amount of money! We rode by high-speed boat to the airport, and arrived in Berlin to rain. LOTS of rain!!!! Tomorrow is supposed to be better, but we shall see....wierd! And Rome is now VERY hot!!!!

Hugs to you all, our internet is slow, so I will upload pics after we get back home...

Hugs, Kathi

    Love your adventures.
    Sounds like you are almost a step ahead of the heat. Haven't heard many travels of Berlin so looking forward to your experience there. Have a safe trip and glad the pickpockets didn't get too much. Enjoy your journey.

    It sounds like so much fun. You can still do things in the rain as long as you have the right clothes.....
