Overnight in Treviso
We weren't lucky enough to get hotel accomodations in Venice most likely because of the expense. In the past EF has put us up in Lido de Jesolo on the Adriatic Coast. It's a bustling shore town with a good bit of night life that normally keeps the kids occupied. But at the last minute EF changed our reservations and booked us into the Hotel Oasi in Treviso. Once we got the a/c going it turned out to be a nice comfortable hotel. Dinner was at the Spaghetti Club just up the street and it was wonderful. It was our first chance to sit down and meet some of the people in our tour group. The guy in this picture is Jim Aspros. He became a legend on this trip. I've never met anyone who had more fun on a vacation than this guy. That day in Verona Jim had tried to withdraw money using his AAA credit card he had purchased just for the trip. When he couldn't get money out of any machines he discovered that he had an expired credit card. He spent most of the day trying to straighten things out. With it being the weekend his problems continued through the next two days. It never dampened his enthusiasm.
