When visiting Venice
two years ago, a few of us from our tour group decided to sit at an outdoor café in St. Mark's Square and order a cup of cappuccino. We sat for about an hour, slowly sipping our drinks while listening to classical music being played
nearby. We relished in the magnificence of being in Venice! It was so AWESOME!
The sun was shining and we were
all smiling and giggling like a bunch of school kids! We knew very well
that the price tag for that very tiny cup of coffee we ordered was going to be substantial, but it really didn’t matter to
any of us because we were experiencing something that we would treasure for the rest of our lives!
So tell me . . . what is the
price tag on a cup of memories? There is none, it’s PRICELESS! Okay, okay . . . it was $20 EUR. It was SO worth it though!
Now for my trip this fall I will
have to admit the unspeakable! I don’t really care much for Italian Coffee! Oh no, now I’ve done it. Blasphemy!
Well, I can’t help what I like and what I don’t like! I'm sure that I'm not the only one in this universe that dislikes coffee in Italy! Or am I?
Oh
well, I have no explanation for my lack of taste in coffee, but I do know that I still intend to sit in St. Mark's Square
for my "Cup of Memories". It’ll just be in the form of a glass (or
two) of Prosecco, Spritz or fine wine! WOO HOO!
