Carnival Freedom, Venice

First pics...

Transferred at Milan airport - that was an experience. Area around Milan was beautiful with snow capped mountains and lots of lakes.

Caught the 3 euro bus from the Venice airport to the end of the road with a few glimpses of Freedom. Going to clean up some and head back out. With almost no sleep going to see what I can see before crash and burn.
