Spork #16: Venice

We recently had a rest day in Venice, staying at a campsite just outside town. It allowed our muscles the chance to recover - always welcome - and meant we could go and explore this fascinating city, where no bikes are allowed.

The other guests on the campsite were very friendly and interested in what we were doing. The night before we left, several people donated their leftover food to us, including rice, pasta, oil and vegetables. As they were flying out of Italy, they didn't want to carry it and knew that we would appreciate it, being on a tiny budget. One lady also gave us lots of shower gels and soaps - perhaps we didn't smell so good when we arrived?

When we departed, we left a Spork in the communal campsite kitchen, as a small gesture to express our thanks for the company and food that people had given us. It wasn't much, but it's all we had.
