Zac: The mystical, miracle man

in travel •  7 years ago 

Zac's still sick as hell so I ended up going to Venice by myself because we paid for so many damn me-time optionals it would be stupid to miss them. Yet another shitty continental breakfast, also one of the worst ones I think we've had so far. The wi-fi is shocking as well. Ya girl just wants some damn cheese.

So anyway back to Venice, I went on the morning walking tour by myself. This was the first day that the weather really sucked, but luckily it all cleared up in the afternoon and the evening. I hung around Gabby and Donne for the tour and Bree chatted to me too so I didn't feel lonely or anything.

For lunch I had a calzone which I've never had before. I thought they were more of an American thing. I really enjoyed mine though all the others weren't so keen on them.

Zac the mystery miracle man decided he didn't want to miss out on a gondola ride in Venice so he got his ass out of bed and found his way into Venice by himself via foreign public transport. It was a miracle, not only be that he was early for the gondolas but that he managed in his state all by himself.

We rockily got our asses on the gondola, I was scared I'd fall in but luckily I was all good. We shared a gondola with Caleb, Emma, Victoria and Fraser. It was so much fun and really relaxing. I would love to come back in the summer and go in one with just Zac and I. It would be so romantic. It was even with the other couples, that's why our gondola name was # couple goals.

After the gondolas we found our way to a Venetian pharmacy and got some medicated cough lollies so that Zac wouldn't die during dinner. Outside the Italian pharmacy they had this big ass vending machine with sex toys. It was hysterical.

Before I met with Zac I also went to a Venetian glass-making demonstration which was really awesome to see! Alas, I am not such a money waster that I'd spend my coin on some glass I don't care about. They had chandeliers in that shop for 26K euro. Honey NO.

Zac and I bought some shitty masks for our Venetian dinner and then met Gabby and Donne for hot chocolate where Gabby got smashed. God bless.

So glad that we got to have balsamic and oil with bread for entree again tonight. The dinner was a delicious four course meal which the meat eaters hated but I absolutely loved # vegetarian goals.

While we ate our dinner we were all serenaded by an Italian saxophone player, I would have loved to have danced but it just wasn't the right atmosphere. I hope that one day I will be the kind of the person to get up and dance given an appropriate opportunity arises.

Zac's hot pink mask was an absolute hit at dinner, he almost looked like a ninja princess with the mask and the neck warmer covering his mouth. It was quite hysterical.

Tonight was another late night packing all our shit away, I had another really awful night sleeping and woke up crying hysterically at 3AM, I was in so much pain from my throat.

A bittersweet day.

Love, Izzy x
