Nicolo Paganini's delightful "Carnival in Venice"
in the background announces:
"Time to Buckle Up"
Dear Hearts and Innocent bystanders, for another AMAZING Adventure
of the Ever-Lovely Dragon Lady & The Wacky American Tourist, for as the
title declares....
We're off to Venice...
Again!!!
"Why Venice again?" you
hesitate to ask, {anticipating another of his long-winded answers}
And without hesitation Chucky answers ever so briefly:
"Blame it on the
Tempelshifs!"
Well now, blame is a tad strong for what
actually happened on our last sea day together during NOWAT BRITANNIA. We
were watching as they were taking advantage of on-board discounts for
booking Back to Back cruises to the Greek Isles and more when Donna says:
“Wanna
come along?”
To which, of course, Dragon Chic says:
"Why Not?"
And that - Dear Hearts - was that!
Since "Her Wishes" are His Mandate to "make
it so", Chucky promptly plunked down a deposit on the same
deals.
Wait, weren't they planning to get on with the 2nd leg
of The Dragon Lady Does America Tour this summer {which
actually started back in 2009 with NOWAT ALASKA} by
jumping on Route 66 in St. Louis and just heading west with scenic stops along
the way including the Grand Canyon, Napa Vineyards and beyond.
Oh well, maybe next year.
{Hmmm, so much for brevity.}
Soooo, what this all adds up to this Fall is 2 {back to
back} 7 day cruises out of Venice, down through the Adriatic Sea to the
Mediterranean with stops in Montenegro, Croatia and various Greek Isles with a
half-day layover in Venice between cruises.
As usual, the agenda, excursion tidbits, etc. will be
highlighted in the posts that follow, although something was mentioned about a
Donkey Ride up a slippery zig-zag in Santorini...
Uhhhhh - we'll just have to see about that.
OK, that's enough for now, HE has to get back online and
finalize a bunch of stuff SHE decided is necessary to enhance this adventure,
not the least of which is locating a new DSW Outlet {her favorite one is under
renovation}...
Aww come on... you had to know it was gonna get down
to shoes sooner or later.
And of course a little Scotch...
OK, OK - lots of Scotch.
Ciao 4 Now
Uncle
Chuck & The Soooo Ready for more Italia,
Dragon Lady
