Tonight we had dinner with Cindy and Kevin Spencer who we met in the dining car on the train from Paris to Venice.
We had so much fun together dining on the train we figured it would be fun to meet up in Venice for something other than cold veal with tuna sauce.
We met them at St. Mark's Square while dodging aggressive pigeons and strolled the streets of Venice toward Rialto Bridge so we could dine at one of the outdoor cafes along the Grand Canal.
It was a wonderful evening with the Spencers once again. They are such a warm, genuine and charismatic couple. Hearing their stories of how they met, live their life and work together was very enjoyable. You could truly feel the love they have for each other and how much they enjoy sharing their lives from each story. Three hours quickly flew by.
The food at dinner was not the best, but still very good. Once again the company was the best part of the evening and for Dale and I, Venice will always be a memory of meeting our new friends Cindy and Kevin from Virginia. It is funny how you can travel half way around the world and meet wonderful people from the USA.
After dinner the four of us once again strolled the now much quieter streets of Venice. We took some photos along the way, did a group photo in St. Mark's Square and said good night near their hotel.
For the Spencers it is onto Florence tomorrow. For Dale and I, one more day in Venice.
Our thanks to Cindy and Kevin for sharing their Venice experience with Dale and I and for making ours a little more special.
