This is the second part of the Italy trip blog. Pat and my anniversary trip finally took place during two weeks in mid May. After a long two travel days we finally arrived to our first destination of the tour: Venice Italy, the city made up of 118 small islands and photo opportunities abound.
Best of Italy Tour
We have had this trip planned since June 2021 as a 50th wedding celebration for Pat and I. It was to have been in May 2022, but was delayed due to lingering Covid issues in Italy. But, we finally made it this year in May 2023! Joining us were Pat’s brother Mike and his wife Lorna who were also celebrating their 50th a year before ours. So, after all the waiting, planning, and trip preparations, we were finally off!
Back Home & Indiana Trip
We left our Florida winter location on March 30th for our slow travel back to our home in the Virginia mountains. The drive is about 750 miles and while driving in the truck/trailer combination, I prefer to break the trip up into four segments, averaging 188 miles per moving day. That way we can be relocated and set up by 2pm and can go exploring.
