The bridge across the lagoon to San Michele, Venice’s cemetery island, is still bustling through this weekend. As of yesterday, about had 50,000 visited the ancestors. Still checking on Dante’s Barque, but we think it’s being restored-> venetiancat.blogspot.com/2019/11/hono...

Massimo Cacciari spoke about Wars & Peace last evening at a full house at Ca’ Giustinian, La Biennale headquarters in Venice. I told our former mayor who is about to get married at age 81, “Massimo, you’ve given new hope for love” & he smiled & tweaked my chin
