Traveling on Italo from Venice to Florence, Italy ~ May 13th

Its gotten to the point where I have to ask what day of the week it is...a good sign that our minds couldn't be further away from work and normal schedules. We arrived in Florence on Monday (I think...) via high speed train from Venice....an awesome experience which was a far more pleasant way of traveling than flying, fer sure! We made advance reservations before we left home mainly because Dick was watching the schedules online and realized that, depending on the time you were traveling, you could be without a seat for the two - hour trips between Venice and Florence, and Florence to Rome.He made the executive decision early one morning to purchase advance club car seats which gave us what they call a 'Living Room' cubicle-type cabins which seat 4. Perfect, awesome way to travel. Drinks & snacks included...first class service!

The seats look beautiful but honestly are not tat comfortable unless you prop your feet up on your opposing partner's seat...which I did! They need a little improvement in the chair design but no complaints from here!
