Thing is, lots of stories in the travel press about how wonderful Venice is without tourists, and how happy they are not to have us there, and want to figure out New ways to live without tourism. I think it is rude to go where you aren’t wanted, so, much as I love Venice, not going back. 😥
I am also a planner, but have started to enjoy serendipity in traveling. My daughter Sophia is going to geology camp in Scotland in June and somehow we got the idea that I could go to Edinburgh and join her at when her camp was done and we could spend a week there having fun. So...after not much thought I decided to go and was even able to pay for it with miles (bonus!). I have always wanted to go to Scotland, but something about deciding in this last minute way makes me so happy. And it is always lovely to spend time with just one of my daughters since they are twins and are often together when I see them.
OMG, one of the main plot points in the book I'm reading for English is the villain falsely turning the hero in for kidnapping a nun! Are you secretly reading along...?
"...every other recalcitrant device... ." You are so right. Dad still loves a project and is always on the lookout for one! (from Mari's mom)

Watching Stanley Tucci searching for Italy he is in Venice, from your descriptions and his show….I now really want to go!
