Dolomites, here we come!

Finally, now that the summer is nearly over, its time for us to go on vacation!  Yaaay! We are taking the bus to the train to the airport and then fly to Venice, Italy, where we will rent a car and start our adventure!  Here we are walking out of the driveway to the bus stop.

By the time we got to Venice and checked into our hotel near the airport, it was pretty late at night.  We didn't see any of Venice (saving it for the end of the trip) and just went straight to sleep.  Today we had breakfast and drove into the mountains, up to the town of San Martino di Castrozza which will be our base for the hut-to-hut backpacking and via ferrata tour we have planned.

We are staying at the Romantic Hotel Regina, and it has the most wonderful hot tub terrace looking up to the mountains that we will go play in tomorrow!
We checked in and went exploring around town, buying bits and pieces ahead of our hike tomorrow.
