A peaceful moment:

A room with a view!

So, we arrived in Venice in a downpour of epic proportions, and had to hike our stuff to our flat over stepped bridges and down obscure alleyways after lugging it onto — and off of — the vaporetta (waterbus)…and then we couldn’t reach our host to get access to our flat for what seemed an interminable fifteen minutes!

Then, once we got the keys, we had to hump it, groceries and all, up three flights of stairs.

Our host opened the shutters despite the rain and lightening, just in time for a brief break in the clouds, and it was suddenly all worth it when we saw this…

I’m very pleased to say that we have a room with a view!
