Soon, I promise! They have to because I have another little mini-trip planned for June. :-) First, a quick recap of my experience with Shutdown Day on Saturday. I did successfully manage to not turn on the computers all day, nor did I even sneak a peak at the Internet on the one machine that Big Jim had running (he did not participate although conceded to shut down two of his three computers for the day), so I am quite pleased with myself. :-D And I used the time to do more of the traditional reading that I often claim to not have the time for (or more accurately, do not MAKE the time for), plant more seeds in the garden, and create some order in the office. So refreshing was the day that I have decided to have my own shutdown day one Saturday a month for the rest of the year, with the aim to making it a weekly tradition of sorts. As much as I love my technology, I do think it is important to cut the cord from time to time. :-)
Now to finally finish off this travel recap (incidentally I am wearing my fabulous purple shoes, my gift from Air France, as I write), I think one of the delightful things about Venice is the dizzying number of precious little corners and nearly hidden plazas to explore, not to mention the interesting architectural details spotted with every peer upward---I could wander for weeks I believe and not become bored. Here is just a small sample of what I am talking about:
These, and more (!), fotos will be posted in the Venice album in the sidebar.
hasta pronto,
