Just another few days until New Year’s and opening weekend!

Naples, meet Gennaro, winging his way southward from RI very soon to get the season started down there. You’re going to love this guy! (And he will be dressed in stripes the next time you see him 😉😁)

L’ultimo giorno - the last day of the season in FL. We had a terrific day and evening, some amazing trips, and more photos to come later.

Giuliana and I just discovered the acoustics in this little alcove this weekend, but they are spectacular - the video definitely doesn’t do it justice.

Hope to see you all next season, hopefully sometime between New Year’s and late April - thank you all for a wonderful third season down here in Naples!!! 🙏🏼

An early congratulazioni to B&K, who had come straight to the dock from city hall after obtaining their marriage license! The big day is Saturday, so this was a little calm before the storm. From us to you, best wishes for a life filled with love, happiness, and romance!

Finally, Marcello has come BACK … to Naples!

It is great to be rowing again, and down here in the beautiful weather of ! I’m trying to give Giuliana and Mariano a little extra time off before having to head for home on Sunday, and to do as much rowing as I can - hope to see you on the water!

The Patriarch and I are driving down to FL to visit Gramophone (him) and row (me) this week. We’re about 5ish miles from the SC border in NC, but these aren’t brake lights - that’s all of us sitting in Park on the highway at 0150 in the morning. GPS says it’s a 15 minute delay, but we’ve already sat for about twice that.

On the , this … is bad.

How does the road tripping gondolier celebrate Pi Day? With a pizza pie, of course!

Happy Pi Day (3/14) to all, and to all a good night! Hopefully the Ides of March will find me down in Naples …

P.S. if you’re around NW RI or NE CT, check out Weidele’s Pizza - they’re fantastic!

Our two very hardworking gondolieri took a few hours off today to visit for some time in a different vessel under oars, before they spent the evening rowing … Vessels under oars 😁🛶

Not a lot of boat maintenance happens while they are on the water, but the incomparable Giuliana had some time yesterday to scrub up the brass a little on the Dei Rossi gondola.

The cavalli (horses, in most cases sea horses) are very much a standard decoration on authentic gondolas. They are one of the four main adornments that were still allowed after the Doge and Venetian ruling council decreed in 1533 that all gondolas needed to be painted black, and that’s that!

How does a gondolier relax on a day off? If he’s lucky, he grabs his favorite person, maybe a furry friend, and goes for a gondola ride!

This is the incomparable Boris, owner/operator of just a ways north of Naples, who joined us for a trip. Check out his bio on sarasotagondola.com - he’s been rowing all sorts of boats for nearly 50 years!

Incidentally, that’s how many years I would like to be a gondolier - we shall see … only 27 more years to go!

Here’s to a great season for everyone on the Gulf coast!

Another winter storm hit La Gondola world headquarters yesterday, but thankfully it wasn’t as bad as the 8-14” they had been forecasting until the day of the event.

And it was great snowman/snowball snow, so the Gondobabies and I made a snow gondolier to celebrate. I wish I was rowing in Florida right now, but we’re making the most of it up here.

This post is a little late in the making - I ended up with a bunch of posts to make related to Valentine’s, and could have done more.

Better late than never (a La Gondola motto for life indeed!), here is the tired, but happy, team that served you for Valentine’s weekend 2022: from front to back:

Christina, our incredible violinist
Marcello, just me
Giuliana, though she be small, she is mighty, and powered by caffeine
Ivano, visiting all the way from RI - that hair looks even more glorious in FL than RI
Mariano, strong, steady, and smiling, shockingly - he is a rock here at LGN

I’s that person walking on water⁉️

No, it’s just our gondoliera extraordinaire, Giuliana, out on another trip on Valentine’s weekend. Hope you’re all doing something fun and romantic!

It’s a no-brainer - you can either spend your afternoon or evening in a crowded restaurant, or you can pack a picnic basket and join us for a romantic, quiet, and private gondola trip!

Just a few reservations open for this weekend - we hope to see you!

Neapolitans, mi dispiace (I am sorry) for neglecting you on IG - the incomparable Giuliana and Mariano are down there serving you every day on the gondolas, and I am stuck up here at HQ, where the weather has been miserable.

The weather is looking up down there, though, and I will be heading south next week to prepare for Valentine’s weekend. Hope to see you soon!

Ciao, Marcello

We are happy to welcome back for the 2022 season the incomparable Giuliana - you repeat customers may remember her from seasons past - as well as the talented Mariano, both of them rowing all season down here before heading back to Providence in April. Here’s to a fantastic season!
