Here we are in Venice

OK, So internet isnt nearly as available here in Europe as we were led to believe. When it is available it is about 6Euros for 40 minutes. We have a myriad of things to say, and other blogs we have written but been unable to post, so we will post them as soon as we have internet available with our own computer. Suffice it to say, we are seeing everything, and travelling much like vagabonds...(how many of you sleep in your car on vacation???? Or, say, at a gas station along the highway? Or, think that you are in Germany, when you happen to be almost all the way through Austria...without an Austrian vehicle permit??????!!!!) We are pretty sure that we climbed and descended over the Alps...however, it was too dark to tell and we are simply being guided by our trusty Garmin GPS.....how were we suppose to know that once we left the freeway in Italy, that there was no going back?

Good news is, we are safe and sound. And we are extremely hungry in a town full of Pizzarias. We are exhausted, as we have yet to get more than 4 hours of sleep in any one stretch.

Later, we will tell you about our white water rafting experience, yummy German food, and how ridiculously weak the dollar is in Europe....as it is, we have used our alloted time on this internet connection....

We love you all.
Thanks for the posts, we will try to update you again soon!
