Palazzo Ca Zanardi - Venezia
![]() |
Slipping into our monkey suits, whilst the ladies donned their ball gowns we made our way to the Rialto Bridge. |
| Champagne (well the italian equivalent) thrust into our hands we stepped aboard the mode of transport set up for the occasion, a gondola. What could spoil the moment? Well, they even get rain in Venice! The ladies would have shared the umbrella, only they might have got wet. | ![]() |
The trumpeters' fanfare welcomed us into the Palazzo, and after a short trip to the bar we were entertained by the string quartet. The Gala dinner started with another quick blast, before we tucked into course after course.

At midnight, just as we were about to turn into pumpkins the boats arrived to return to the Hotel Westin Excelsior bar.
