Buon giorno!

Awake and properly caffeinated to face the day. We're going to take Venice Art Tours walking tour of Venice, which seems a great way to get ourselves re-acclimated to the city. We're supposed to meet our tour guide at 9:15 on the Ponte delle Guglie. The tour should take around 3 hours so we'll be done just in time for lunch.

Yesterday, we stopped by a TIM store to buy a SIM card for our phones. Jan's and mine worked fine for phone service on our Androids, but the Internet is not working yet. We'll stop by the store again today and ask what's wrong with it. 

For those who need it, my number is 331 2376041, and Jan's 331 2376037. To call from the USA, the international access code is 001, and the code for Italy is 39. So to call me from the States, the number would be 001.39.331.2376041. To call Jan, it's 001.39.331.2376037.

Jeff also bought a SIM card for his Verizon iPhone 4, but it refuses to work at all. It will not activate, in spite of the fact that Verizon "unlocked" the phone prior to leaving for Italy. Yet another reason to go to the TIM store sometime today to figure out how to fix it.

Oh, and the weather is magnificent!
