I have decided that when I retire, I will come here, to Venice. It is our last day in Italy and I couldn't wish for a better way to spend it. This is, by far, the most beautiful place I have been to in my life, and i love the feel of it. Everyone is relaxed and calm, the buildings are beautiful and old, and it rains a lot. No wonder everything practically "sits" in water. The locals think of this city as a tomb, but I see it more as a resting place- yeah it pretty much means the same thing, but 'resting place' sounds less morbid and a little bit enchanting, don't you think? I mean, just look how beautiful it is...

Go back to my blog page to view some great Italian music!
Tomorrow we fly to India. I am really going to miss this place - all the delectable food and gelato, the simple way of 'existing', and all the lovely Italian words that seem to flow like a river through the tightly packed streets that make up this wonderul country. I know I will be back here someday, hopefuly soon, but for now I will say goodbye the way the Italians taught me. And that is...ciao!
