No visit to Amsterdam would be complete
without visiting a diamond cutting factory.

Rhineland-Black Forest region.
Vienna.
Florence
Lucerne
Salzburg
Finally, Venice.

Wonderful memories! I can offer the German name of Bruges/Brugge to your collection 🙂 In German it is “Brügge” (which is similar to our word for bridge: “Brücke” – and there is an ethymological connection I’m told. As far as I know, Bruges ist the French name, Brugge is the Flamish name, so Belgians call it either way but since Brügge is in the West Flanders part of Belgium the “local locals” call it Brugge. This is definitively on my list more so than any Italian or Spanish town.

Thank you for that explanation. I love the Brugge version and was disappointed when I saw the word spelled Bruge. The Het Zand fountain just on dusk was/is beautiful. And now I now the local locals refer to t he town/city as Brugge…I will not deviate with my spelling…hopefully 🙂

Leave half a day for lunch in Murano as well. Even in the wet it was pretty and a nice cruise over and back. Also a canal cruise is a must….especially if you have a special partner with you. Legend has it that couples must kiss as the gondola passes under each bridge. There was only two in sight when we commenced…and we lost count very quickly, but had some fun.

That’s really cool you were able to visit so many cities 🙂 I visited Florence a few years ago and loved it so much! Which one was your favorite?

I loved Brugges 😀 I just loved its fountain although after reading a novel called, “I, Mona Lisa” I would have loved to have spent more time in Florence. However, this could also be said of other cities as well. I was told beforehand ‘you will be on the road all the time’. And that was true! However, we did visit the main tourists attractions…along with thousands of others.
