CLOAK AND MASK NIGHT

This is one of  our mask and cloak nights when you walk around town and enjoy the festivities. Of course along the way you stop and have a glass of wine, a bite to eat, and then you continue on your way. Let me tell you that when you  do sit down, you really don't want to get back up, especially when you get a bunch of girls together...we catch up since we don't see each other too often.

On this night we hit a few places. One of these is the famous Harry's Bar where the Bellinis and carpaccio were invented by the Cipriani family..but keep your pocketbook (sorry...wallet...shows you what ten days with my American cousin can do to me) handy. They run you a fair price...but it's the experience. We meet an American along our walk through St. Mark's Square. He makes his way, albeit a little on the drunk side, with a glass of beer in his hand as he tries to help us girls find the location of the bar using his cellphone. When we do find it and try to get it, it is already very busy and full and we are four girls this evening. Our other counterpart is sleeping in the hotel room. She flew in from California via New York and needed to catch up on some sleep. We opt to go to another sit down bar/restaurant and do some catching up.
