Here's a fun local piece on La Gondola in Providence, Rhode Island. "A touch of Venice in Providence on a gondola" The author is - - just bit biased towards the servizio in his town, but then who can blame him...La Gondola is terrific.
Ha! For what it is worth, Gondola Greg, there is definitely some poetic license, and a little lost in translation, as there always is with reporters. Admittedly, we threw a LOT of information at him in a short period of time, and overall I think he did a great job. Still, as a former science teacher, accuracy and precision are two of my closest friends, and some of the little things in there that were not QUITE right did make me smile. I am VERY happy he mentioned the Gondola Nationals...any word on your escaping your commitments and getting out here? Ciao for now, Marcello
