 View from the Hard Rock

Despite the wretched storm these Gondolas were filled with tourists within 10 minutes of us sitting down.

We got to the Hard Rock at 11 for lunch.  We had to wait for a bit.  The hostess said, "We don't open @11, we open after 11."  OF course!  We're in Italia after all.  

 Did we pick the right place to eat?  Can't argue with a little thing like SC!  Always good to be reminded that you have a home.

 What, what?  A little Billy Idol blaring!

Definitely picked the right place to eat!

Me: "I'd like to take a normal picture of you and our view."  

Sr.: "What?  This is my normal face."

Lucky Girl - he never ceases to surprise me.  Told him that I was too old to read the tiny screen on my Iphone.   One of my gifts -  a white Ipad.  Me?  An Ipad?  Shocked for sure! Would have fussed for him to take it back, but he said he ate the receipt.  It's so cool to be able to read the screen without my "cheater readers".  I also got a cool leather purse in Venice.  E bought one there last month and I was j.e.a.l.o.u.s.  

p.s. We've decided to go for 21 years!  I'll let you know how it goes!
