“Darling, let’s go to Italy for shopping at the same time we’ll buy you a fur coat! ” - my husband told me, thereby plunging me into an incredible shock, because in order to achieve at least some idea earlier it was unrealistic easy, but here for shopping and even to Italy. I don't know what it was due to, perhaps his increase, but I'm not exactly sure. In general, it doesn’t matter, I was wildly pleased that he offered to go somewhere only in two. I agreed without hesitation. He asked me to organize everything, and then the realization came over me that, okay, we will come to Italy, but where to go there? Where are these stores, God knows. After reading the reviews, I came to the conclusion that it is best to go shopping with the so-called private traders, and I remembered that 3 years ago, when we went just to relax in Italy, a similar person organized excursions for us and we were very pleased with his services. Fortunately, I have a habit of keeping all these pieces of paper with numbers, all notebooks and diaries, for which, by the way, my husband criticizes me. I plunged into this pile of papers and a few hours later I found the necessary page in the diary. All that remained was to hope that the number had not changed, I dialed the number and waited with some excitement for the beeps, if not strange, but some strange phenomenon happened to my phone and I never heard the beeps. A young man picked up the phone, whom I recognized at that very second, Vyacheslav also remembered me, after a while. I explained to him the purpose of our visit and he kindly explained everything to me. All we had to do was buy tickets and name the time of arrival.
The flight went without any problems. Vyacheslav booked a room for us at the Milton Hotel, we were pleased with it, comfortable rooms, friendly staff, some even spoke Russian. Breakfast was a buffet, rather monotonous but absolutely normal, we refused lunches, because in the afternoon we had to be in the shops. Dinners on the menu, I can’t say that we were spoiled there, but absolutely normal food, we have no complaints. The main thing is that everything was clean and constantly dry and washed towels, etc.
On the first day we went to the city of San Marino to buy a fur coat, we decided to buy it at the very beginning, so as not to choose from what we want, and not from what we have enough money for. Having entered the store, my sweet Sasha, seeing the number of fur coats, cursed our entire trip, as he realized that it was a very long time and sat down in a chair, but I decided on a fur coat in less than an hour. Seeing mine, well, in the sense of the one that I bought, I just fell in love with her, it feels like choosing a pet for yourself =). The fur coat was not expensive, relative to Moscow prices. This came as a very pleasant surprise. Others who were with us took a little longer, but not much, in short, in two hours we completely managed. And we went to the city of Florence for other things, seeing the prices for things, in Sasha's eyes I read that he was so surprised that now he will go for things every season =). He bought himself moccasins, jeans, jackets, T-shirts, shirts, etc. nonsense, I never suspected that my husband had such a talent for shopping, he spent money with such pleasure... mmm... a very memorable sight, I thought that when we start to choose for me, it won’t be the same, but I was wrong, and much, he didn’t refuse me anything at all, he also offered, he has very little taste for women’s things =). For you to understand, we never went shopping together with him, so it happened with us from the very beginning. Unfortunately, we didn’t meet the deadline on one day and on the second day we went shopping again, but this time we went to Milan, the story is the same, we bought a bunch of clothes, we spent little money relative to Moscow prices. On the third day, we no longer dared to go shopping again, since we had already bought everything we wanted. And since we had three more days left, we turned to Vyacheslav with a request to arrange excursions for us, in which he gladly helped us.

He offered us the following excursions: Venice, Rome, Bari, Lago de Garda, San Leo and a bunch of other things, I can’t even remember. We chose Venice, Rome and Lago de Garda (lake). I don't know about anyone, but Sasha and I didn't like Venice at all. Rome, yes... this is a city, I would probably go there on excursions every day, most of all we liked the fountains - it's something simple, I can't imagine the person who made such beauty. And finally, Lago de Garda, this is the place where when you find yourself it seems that you are in paradise, or the most colorful and sweetest dream. Vyacheslav took us to the island **** where we had a short excursion, then our guide offered us a ride on a boat, adding with some intrigue, I promise you will not regret it. And so it was... Riding a boat on this clean, calm, beautiful lake is indescribably beautiful. I have never seen a more beautiful place than this island. After this trip, I was so impressed that Sasha came up with a game called "The sun, let's be silent for 5 minutes" =)). We are very pleased with the trip.
My advice to you, if you want a rest - go to Italy, you will not regret it, but suddenly, like me, you will discover new facets in your soulmate - this is very pleasing, believe me...
