We took a quick look at Venice last weekend. Just overnight in my case and
for a few hours for Heiki as her plane was cancelled. Then we both took the
train back to Rimini for a night in the marina.

We had intended to sail Grapto up to Venice so as to have our own vaporetto
to use for the Pickup's Snr trip next weekend but then we got the sad news
that Heiki's mum, Rosemarie, had passed away at home. She had been very ill.
We've been in Berlin since Saturday making funeral arrangements but should
be back in Venice this week.
