We had another wonderful vacation and I really enjoyed writing the blog much more than ever before. One of our Tauck travel partners, Steve, announced to the group how much he was enjoying my blog and the Tour Director, Gabby, sent everyone the link. I think you know how much I love to see the reader’s “Comments” and “Likes” but traveling along side of some readers made it even more special.
We had a lovely fairwell dinner last night and said goodbye to our new friends. This morning we left for the airport via water taxi at 3:35 AM. Things went very smooth at the airport because it was essentially empty. The short flight from Venice to Munich might have provided us with the highlight of the trip. Shortly after take off we saw a magnificent sight outside the left side windows. I asked the flight attendant and she confirmed we were looking at the Dolomite mountain range of the Italian Alps. The highest peak is a bit under 11,000 feet but extending through the clouds and being covered with snow presented a glorious picture of the Earth. I took some shots but again they don’t replace seeing them for yourself.
As usual, at the end of a trip, I like to post some pictures of interesting things I have seen during our excursion. I hope you enjoy them.
And lastly, a picture of my real travel buddy. Looking relaxed while having lunch in Split, I caught this shot under the table.
