Back (what, you didn't know I was gone?)

Was on a little adventure to Italy for 12 days.  Here are just a few photos from the first two parts of our journey, Venice and Florence.  Will post some from Rome later; I just haven't sorted through those yet.
Italy is all about fashion, even the pigeons are pretty

Colorful houses of Burano

Flower pots on a window sill

The Duomo

Ponte Vecchio

The view from our hotel room in Venice

Ended up getting some sort of upper respiratory infection when I was in Rome, and still feel kind of icky.  Mark ended up getting it too.  The running plan is to try to do 7 miles tomorrow.  Then maybe 3 or 4 on Thursday.  The 15K is on Saturday.  It's going to be "interesting"

    Ah, I'm envious. I haven't been to Italy for over two years, and I feel it calling to me. I especially love Florence. Sorry to hear about the respiratory ick, though, and hope you make a full recovery soon!

    I LOVE Italy! It's one of my favorite countries in Europe. Growing up we went there on our summer vacation every year. Loved the food and the good looking handsome men :)
