Europe
Welcome! This is a blog for our big trip to Europe in June/July. We've got 11 countries to visit, or 12 if you count Vatican City. So I guess it will all unfold here.....

Venice and some other photos




r
So we are just coming to the end of our time in Venice.

Its been pretty cool. So much history, no roads..... everything is floating. Roads are rivers. Ferries are cars. Troy hasnt spilt anything yet.

We have gone through several churches and cathedrals, built in 15th and 16th centuries which have been amazing. Gone to some islands. We went to two different islands today.

Troy- Forgotten the name. Memorable. Thin narrow streets and walkways. Like walking through a maze with a lot of construction. If that doesnt evoke feelings of magicalness, I dont know what will.

Chris- I went to this island called Burano. I heard it was super colourful so I went. Wow it was like the most colourful place on earth. Every house was so colourful and a different colour too. Ive put a photo in.

That top photo is of Troy being a terminator and walking towards the Venice sunset.
Then we have colourful Burano, one of the villages from Cinque Terre and us before we took a scooter ride (We survived).

Off to a town just out of Florence tomorrow. We are healthy and well. Except for a complete inability to format pictures and words on our blog. Sorry if its all over the show a bit!
