Hello!!! As some of you know we went to Venice last weekend with Brooke and Ayden Meyer. We had the best time!! Venice is beautiful. Do you know you can only get to Venice by boat! Well, in typical "Burr and Anne are too busy at work to plan" fashion - we arrived in Venice and had NO clue where the Westin was (similar to Dublin!). I swear we arrive in this cities and just think the Westin is going to be some skyrise with its name printed high on the top of the building and it will just pop out at us. Yeah, not so much. It was amusing to stroll around Venice and finally find our little hotel. It was nice when we arrived on Saturday. And walking around we randomly ran into our friends we were suppossed to meet on Sunday! Brooke and Ayden Meyer - so funny. We used to live about 1/4 milie apart in Charlotte and now we were in Venice together:-)
Their hot chcoolate is AMAZING. Its just like a melted chocolate bar in a glass, but not a hersey's - delicious European chocolatE!

Here are a few pics.
So venice gets flooded, not necessarily by the rain - although it makes it worse, but it comes up through the streets so there are these make shifts sidewalks that people walk on since the water is up to a foot on the actual streets. It was so interesting! Look at these pics. I'm not sure you can see it in this pic, but I am on the "sidewalk" and its POURING RAIN. Oh, and the blue clock in the back is the world's first digital clock! Interesting factiva :)
Me and Brooke, enjoying some Fanta - yummy!
