Instead of arriving at 7am, we got to Venice (or rather the ferry port south of it) at 10am. Disembarkation happened at 10.30am. From here, we drove home. Lunch happened in Brescia and was amazing. Switzerland drove Flo nuts, especially the two hour trafic jam before the Gotthard tunnel. However, he wanted to get home and just kept driving. We were home at 2am.
We went into the self-service restaurant for breakfast because all our food was gone be this point. 🙂 Number 3 pointed to the pancakes but the Greek waiter insisted that the kids try a Greek breakfast of some kind of dough balls in honey. It was very tasty!
At this point, there was no land to be seen
Then, at some much later point, the Alps appeared on the horizon
Still quite hard to see. The wind had camled down and the ferry swayed way less. Plus, our kids could now stand in the front without being blown away
“For my portfolio!” Every kid collected pictures for their portfolio. 😉
Entering the lagoon south of Venice
It was quite epic to see Venice appear on the horizon. The kids don’t remember that we’ve all been there but Flo and I recognized a couple of features
I enjoyed looking out to Venice…
…the kids not so much. It was too cold for the hobbits this morning.
Finally, it was our turn to disembark
Last shot of the red and white Superfast ferry…our temporary home for 25 hours
Improvised lunch for the kids and ragu for Flo in Brescia
Our stop for lunch, right next to a fast charger, turned out to be a bit more fancy than we had anticipated. It was delicious though. 🙂
