Actually to get to one of the most beautiful places in the world - Venice - you have to pass through one of the ugliest - Mestre, of which Marghera is a part - a huge chemicals factory, industrial units, warheouses and so on, a maze of roads . .it could be anywhere it the (industrialized) world. Maybe they spent Sunday amid the fountains, squares and colonnades...or on a gondola. I don't think Marghera is so ugly! In fact, it was a surprise. The centre of the town, around the Municipio, is nice: small buildings, tiny gardens, mysterious narrow roads... almost romantic, very foxxian. I slept at a small hotel, a pinks two storey villetta, in a nice quiet room. There was also a little garden with some statues, a cat and a dog (they were alive, not stone!). Then I spent the nexy day in Venice, among hords of tourists, hoping to bumpt into J & L, who (as L had told me) were going to have dinner in Venice. But no foxxes around, just some other pretty cats.
Then, back home, back to reality... sigh!
