Venezia

This weekend we went with Lorenzo de'Medici to the opening of the Carnevale in Venice. The Carnevale goes from Feb. 7th to the day before Ash Wednesday so it's basically an extended version of Mardi Gras. It was incredible! The masks were fantastic and the weather was great. Saturday night we were bussed to a "Traditional Carnevale" dinner which included about 5 courses and free wine. The next trip I take with school will be to Pompeii in April and I hope it will be just as great an experience. I just uploaded the pictures to Flickr so take a look - Ciao!
