Back from my travels
I have just returned from my study travelling.
I started in Venice, staying in Murano, having participated in the lucia bubacco course.
I am afraid my sculptural prowess needs lots more practise. I did enjoy my walks around Murano and Venice, altho' the crowds were a bit daunting. We had to stay togethr aas a group, which prevented us from getting lost, although it was said, you just had to get to the canal and you would b able to get yourself home!
Getting myself around from vaporetto/train,/plane was quite tricky as there was this time frame, however I managed, except when I got on the Venice/Milan train although I had a First class ticket, I found myself in the second class carriage and sitting in someone elses seat. The gentleman had to go to my seat in First class as I was too ensconced in his seat!
Flying from Milan to Amsterdam was ok - had to wait a day for my next flight, so I took a bed in a hotel nearby.
My next flight was from Amsterdam to Iceland to get across the pond to get to Seattle. All went well, except I could not use the roaming on my cellphone, it stopped in Europe!
Will continue my USA travels in another chapter
