Venice was really only a stop along the way to my ultimate destination in Italy. The reason I really wanted to make this trip was to see Tyler and Joy Hoffman in Vicenza!
They met me at the train station on Monday evening and we drove straight to the bowling alley on Post to meet up with a few of their friends. I feel the need to comment here that I bowled pretty well that night - well, not for some, but for me. ;-)
Ty and Joy were great hosts. They let me see where they work and I got a better feel for what they do with the kids there and how it all works. Joy and I spent an afternoon at the pool together and cooked stuffed peppers that we ate for dinner in the patio area of their adorable little villa in the hills just above Vicenza. I got to meet their neighbors, too. They also took me to nearby Verona for dinner on night and to see the arena there the House of Juliet. Oh, and I had THE BEST coffee of my life at a little cafe in downtown Vicenza. Seriously. Words cannot describe...
