Mother and Daughter Italian Holiday Caper

My daughter and I had just returned from our wearing yet amazing two-week holiday to Italy. The journey was a birthday gift I confirmed for her 10th birthday. She was so captivated in everything European, so I made a promise that when she ranked number one again in her class we would fly to Italy and see a few cities. She wished that we headed first to Venice because she hoped to see the Grand Canal and to ride a gondola so bad.

I wanted my daughter to love her first trip to Italy so I reserved for a hotel located near the Grand Canal. I found a three star guesthouse so-called Hotel Antiche Figure and we stayed there for a few days. I pleaded a guestroom overlooking the Grand Canal for I knew my daughter would love that. I had to pay extra for that, which was not a problem, since it has an startling view and the room itself was shipshape and air-conditioned. Breakfasts were pretty good also just okay for a three star guesthouse, plus the hotel staff, especially the receptionist was very amicable and accommodating. My daughter asked stacks of questions but still the girl on the front desk was willing to give answers though she almost run out of gens to share. All in all, the hotel was gorgeous, the city (Venice) was splendid and our visit there was one-of-a-kind.
