Hello Wednesday evening from a very warm Venice! 

Having a really great holiday, enjoying turning off from the usual pressures for a little bit and not counting every penny.. Not very MSE! Plenty of time for that when back in blighty!

Oh how lovely! Hope you have a wonderful time. And I mean how far wrong can you go with spending on a small holiday 🫣😆. Enjoy it and I hope the weather is nice there too 😊.

Hello Friday! Its a bit wet and cooler on our final day in Venice! Maybe its a sign its a good day to make our move. We've had really great weather, a bit too hot for me but no complaints at all!

Was thinking of taking a day trip to Verona on the way to Milan but the weather forcast is for thunder & lightening so not sure what to do now?! We can check out of our digs, leave our luggage at the hotel and explore a bit more of where we are. This is looking a likely option now. Absolutely loving Italy and this area...will definately be back! We stay in Milan tonight for two nights before flying home on Sunday morning. 

We had a bit of fun in the large supermarket near us, we bought some sweet treats as gifts for home. I don't normally buy gifts but my lovely mum always buys something when she goes away so we have picked up a fridge magnet & some local biscuits in a tin. My partner loves his sweets and so he has some sweets which we can't buy in UK so I think he will be happy. I bought some local wine with the intention to drink during holiday but haven't so will stuff into the suitcase too! 

Before we left for holiday I'd saved some spending money and put this on a Monzo account that had been sitting dormant. Once we were up and running (early holiday teething problems) this worked perfectly. Wasn't sure how much was realistic spending money we'd need so went for a 100 euros for myself and the two kids. This has been pretty much spot on. I was hoping there would be a bit left at the end to cover some of the costs of 2 lots of hotels but I don't think there will be much left tbh. Whatever is left will be diverted there and the remainder will be paid over July and Aug pay checks.
