Well…up and running at about 6am this morning to get ready for heading to the boat that we take to the train station at about 8:45 and I have the little induction pot going to make some instant coffee to get me moving…it’s been fun here in Venice and I was able to eat gelato/ice cream for the first time since I had the huge infection in my mouth that had me so sensitive to cold it was like getting hit in the face with a hammer it hurt so bad…we have one museum this afternoon and I’m not sure if it’s the Gallileo or DaVinci but I don’t care…it will be cool after seeing all the Picassos and Calder stuff yesterday…my body is holding up okay but with some pains that are pretty normal so I’ll live through it…I do have a blister on my right little toe that I have to put a bandage on but that was expected with all the fast walking we’re doing…my daughter really flies when she has somewhere to go…I did get a notice from consumers that the power was out at my house but it was for planned maint and only lasted about an hour so no big deal…so, I need to pour the coffee down and get a shower but need to get the first Mastodon post out first…more later…
