So The Captain and I went to Venice Carnival this weekend. Some people warned us against it, citing the crowds and the chaos as a deterrent, but I am glad I didn't listen. There was lots to see and hey I'm from New York, I like a little crowd every once in a while.

Fiinally! Snow!
Snow finally came. On Saturday, The Captain and I went to Tarvisio, Italy and walked around and had coffee.Then we came to this side of the "border", went to a wonderful dinner, and then to a silly event in Kranjska Gora (which I guess was mostly just sort of a Pust event combined with skiing). We also watched a tiny bit of a (criminally bad) band called The Tide and then went in and watched the (even more criminally bad) Eurovision song contest competitions.
Here are some pictures. I stood in front of a lot of signs.
My footprints. I took this picture when I came back in the house.
Another NYC themed place. This is definitely a new photo project

My incredible steak and knedl dinner. Yum!
