Our plane lands at the Venice Malpensa airport
Yep. Those are my feet. Standing on Italian soil!
Driving to Bassano del Grappa.......
The hotel
Burt is standing in front of the elevator. That's
it. The whole thing. The two of us got in and it
was full.
Our room. Very comfortable bed. We had to test it out with a little siesta😴💤
Our balcony.
We went for a little walk to explore the area.
Check it out Stephen! A mushroom emporium!!
U
We stopped at this little shop to get some lunch.
The view from the bridge over the river is so
beautiful. It is like a postcard.
We met Alessandro in the lobby and had a
proseco toast at the hotel bar, then we stepped
next door for a traditional cocktail, a mezzo
mezo, rhubarb liquor and soda water with fresh lime.
Then Alessandro took us to his house and we
had a glass of wine and met 2 of his friends
before going to dinner.
Delicious pizza for dinner. The owner of the
restaurant has been there serving pizza for 53
years! He showed us photos from when they
opened in 1963.
After dinner liquor, Limoncello
After dinner espresso.
Then we all went back to the hotel to meet
Alberta (Alessandro's wife) and Carlotta (Mathilde's sister) for a glass of proseco to
toast new friendships.
