This is not a play for any candidate, simply a former history major and great proponent of the American Democratic Experiment saying to please get out and vote - be it by mail, early voting, or on Election Day - just do it. And if you really want to do your part for American democracy, take some time to prepare yourself before voting - read over ballot questions, check out candidates, etc. I love democracy!!!

Three weekends to go before our season ends on 11/2, and there are still two full fire nights, an incredible moon these last few days, and some GLORIOUS weather on the horizon, especially this weekend! Hope to see you soon, and that you’re all having an awesome day in the sunshine! 🌞 🚣 🔥 🌝
Naples, Florida, just a couple more weeks and we set our sights on you!

At a time when several of our college-aged gondoliers are heading back to school, it is so great to welcome back Figaro, who was gone for most of the summer himself. That golden voice is back on the river though - check him out weekends until the end of the season (11/2)!

The young gondolier exodus continues, as Patrizio has left us (for now) for school commitments. Hopefully he will make a couple of cameos this fall, because as you can see, from any angle at all this guy looks pretty darn good!

Most #gondola stories are happy ones in #providence, but every once in a while, there is a sad one, and I felt that this one should be shared.
We had a reservation book online yesterday late afternoon for today, relatively early in our schedule. The couple were simply celebrating “romance” (we always ask for an occasion, if there is one), but this morning the gentleman who booked the reservation called to say that he had to cancel because his girlfriend had passed away in the night.
We wanted to do something to honor this woman who we will not meet, and who was taken from her family, friends, and boyfriend so quickly. We decided to scatter the rose petals he had ordered with his reservation, then release them to the river with a moment of silence.
Our sincerest #condolences to this young man, and to his girlfriend’s family and friends also. All of the gondoliers were stunned to hear about why this trip was canceled, and from our family to yours, we hope you are all coping the best you can, and leaning on each other for support right now.
To anyone else who sees this post, maybe hug and kiss your loved ones - we just never know.

The exodus begins … this is the month where the team diminishes a bit, as we lose our college-age gondoliers to their studies. First up are Rosalia and Gianni, both studying at @wpi - the best wishes to you both, and hope to see you soon!

Congratulazioni to both of this season’s rookies, Giovanni Pierluigi and Enrico (latter pictured departing on his very first trip) for rowing their first trips last week - bravissimo, gondolieri!
(And please forgive Marcello for messing around with video templates lately 😁🤷🏻♂️🙏🏼)

A very belated congratulazioni to the incomparable Rosalia, table person extraordinaire, who last month not only graduated from high school, but also was the title performer in Heritage Ballet’s Cinderella. Bravissima, Rosa! 👏🏼 🩰 👩🏻🎓🙌🏼
