This was part two of our six-week Grand European Adventure. We were with Uniworld for their two-night “Lugano and Lake Como” pre-trip, followed by “Milan, Venice & the Jewels of Veneto”, which included two nights in Milan (including seeing The Last Supper), a few hours in Verona to pay our respects to Romeo and Juliet, and seven nights sailing the Venice Lagoon on the S. S. LaVenezia.
