Christmas 🎄 time is here....
Can't take a European River cruise to see the Christmas markets? Here are some great Christmas towns right here in the US

Outdoor markets, warmly lit downtowns, cozy restaurants, cheerful locals… there is something special about American small towns when it comes to the holiday season.

And now for something a little different.
Fyi, don't let anyone tell you that you won't eat and drink your way through Italy (i am now a spritz girl, you cant tell me any different). There are so many different regions. With different styles of cooking, just like in the states!

Day 3 (Sorry I skipped 😀)
Full day in Venice. Started out rainy....and continued to be rainy but it was still fun. Gondola ride with a singing gondolier. Then free time for walking in the flooded streets of Venice and an italian lunch of cappuccino and a cannoli and then Gelato. Followed by a trip to Murano for glass and then Burano for colorful houses and lace.

And I am off. If you are wondering why the mouse, my hubs and I started it when he was deployed years ago. Now anytime that we travel out of the states, we take it with us. Germany, Poland, Jordan and now Italy.
FYI pro tip. TSA PRE CHECK!
I was in and out of line. $78 for 5 years. And I did mine right at Staples, 10 mintes.
