Welcome to that there Venice, where the film festival and Regatta are due to kick off this weekend.
A short trip from home for food last night saw us at a local Fush n Chups restaurant, which were very nice and where Mrs Fogg exposed her blondeness, when I asked for the Whale Portion (being a tad peckish) and on the menu it is actually called a “Moby Dick”, at which point Mrs Fogg exclaimed that Moby Dick wasn’t a whale, you could have heard a pin drop, bury your head in uneducated shame!
A nice early start 4.40am), then the usual shambles that is the UK airport security and having to queue forn20 minutes to buy a coffee.
Anyway Venice we is arrived! Blue skies, 26 degrees, a gentle limousine to the waterfront and then private water taxi to our hotel.
Food, wine, sightseeing, gondola rides and warmth.
We had justa one cornetto from here.
