I love all the pictures. Maybe we should make a small book of your emails, as a memoir of your travels in Venice? -- Xenia

I am tickled pink over your suggestion of keeping my emails of the trip. Really. Thank you so much. Since you suggest it, perhaps I will make a little electronic website book. It has been fun composing the emails and squishing the images into email-sized ones. A sort of re-viewing of the day. Something I would never dream of doing on a week-long go-go trip. -- JB

I can tell from your last message that you were thinking about how best to report on your trip for your book. I shouldn't have suggested the book idea to you until you returned because now you will be nervous about your emails. In fact I don't think you should do the book anymore! (does that help?)
