..even Jonathan Livingston Seagull was in town! 
...such fancy unusual sights, eh?!
...always the same, since my arms were both busy!
...And you already know that when I go downtown is only for special purposes...Yes, my beautiful friend Kelly ........
....and her lovely family were around! Yay!!! 
The occasion was rather special, since I met the wonderful Sophie, the cutest baby I've ever seen! (I took loads of close up pictures of the sweet princess but despite her parents'permission, I'm going to respect the Italian laws in force and protect the minor's privacy on this blog, which is open to everyone)
Here James is putting fuel into the pushchair at the boats'petrol station!
We were a bit unlucky for our lunch,the restaurant I had in my mind was closed! But don't worry, we didn't starve, since Kel&James took me to their favourite trattoria!
As a thank you I took them to Giudecca, a long and narrow island facing Venice, hoping to reach the top floor of the Molino Stucky Hilton for a drink..shame it was closed too due to preparations for a pool party!!! Anyway we were allowed to visit the pool terrace and enjoy for a few minutes the breathtaking view!
Once the Hilton hotel was a mill...
Venice's harbour and the many cruise liners...
..The quiet island of Giudecca...
..the panorama over the town...
..the happy couple :-)
..and again, Kel and I...
Thank you guys for a great meet up, can't wait for the next one!

Hope that you have a great week ahead

Many thanks to Kelly for getting you to drag yourself to town and post us some gorgeous photos. You are still on my list of places to visit bambino - fingers crossed for next year. xxxx

Michela looking ever so stylish as usual!
Wow, made it to that Hilton!
I am sure London is calling you very loudly... For Autumn maybe?
Gorgeous photos - thanks for sharing your special day with us:)
Hi Michela! What lovely photos! Jonathan Livingston Seagull! You're FUNNY!
Lovely photos of Venice and your friends. Are we not supposed to show children on our blogs at all then? (Not that I do)
Enjoy the rest of the weekend my friend. Buon Ferragosto.
What amazing photos, Michela! I hope I can visit sometime! You both are beautiful young ladies! Enjoy your week, girlfriend! ♥
What a lovely time you had on this meet up. Loved seeing the photos of Venice and that last photo of you looking so very stylish.

Lovely post........so glad you had a great time with Kelly and her family and thanks for the great photo's of Venice...........Hope you are well Michela. Have a lovely day!
Ciao, Micaela,
Can I write to you in Italian? Mi piacciono molto le tue foto e le tue piante e il tuo entusiasmo per la mia PATRIA. sarà stato bello per i tuoi amici, poterti visitare.
In Italia, dovresti cercare di crescere solo piante italiane, perchè sono adatte al clima.
Thank you for loving MY italy as much as you do. Is one of your parents Italian?
Con grande affetto da
ANNA
Sorry... it's Michela, isn't it? I used to know a Micaela, that's why I keep calling you that.
I took lovely photos of children, in Italy and I know the families would be happy for me to publish them, as they told me so.
Fortunately, the hideous climate of "suspiscion" attached to children has not taken over, yet. We just respect and love them... in a nice, innocent kind of way! Anybody living in Italy knows that!
ANNA
I've loved seeing Venice with you and Kelly!
It looks hot over there; our weather has picked up now and we're enjoying some sunshine.
Shame about your sunflowers, I thought they'd do really well over there, but then you never can tell with plants can you?
How wonderful to meet your friends for lunch on such a beautiful day too! x
hi Michela! Again, FABULOUS photos!! oh how I envy your location, just stunning! Looks like you all had a wonderful time!

Looks like a wonderful time was had by you with Kelly and her beautiful family. There must have been so much to talk about. I think there are some great friendships established in the blogworld.
