Nous sommes en train de préparer un autre voyage pour rester à Venise plus longtemps. Nous avons fait une très belle expérience avec Fiorella dans une Venise très tranquille après la pandémie. I y avait un peu des gens. On veut y retourner l’année prochaine pour en profiter davantage. On a tres aimés les peintures !
