The ruckus laughter rang into the night. Around the round table sat enthusiastic spoon players with the Italian rookies playing an entertaining card game of spoons. The card game with a few of the Italians from Athla was a fantastic ending to our last day in Italy and Fred’s birthday. 

Previously in the day we checked out of the Venice hotel and caught the bullet train to Milan before having lunch at Mc Donald’s of all places for our last lunch in Italy. With last minute presents brought we caught the cab back to our Italian home; The Hub for our final night.

Quite a few of the younger members of our group were disappointed that they were unable to go to the beach whilst in Venice so Fred took them to the hotel swimming pool. The other remaining members of the group took the opportunity whilst the others were in the pool to repack their luggage and to relax.
