Wednesday night...last night

We went by ferry to the Fisherman's Island for dinner.  It was a dark ferry ride to the island but only took about 15 minutes or less.  We were two Collett groups there for dinner which must have taxed the servers etc.  I had a chicken dinner, which is of course ridiculous when going to a Fisherman island, but I was glad I had done so.  Those who had fish were disappointed in the quantity but I found mine perfect.  We had lots of wine on the table, both white and red, and started with the most typical caprese salad, which I had thought of being Mexican, however after having had it so many places in Italy, realized it must be Italian.  Anyway, delicious! Followed by the usual pasta course which appeared to be like lasagne, but green.  I didn't see any meat, so think it must have been just green pasta with a bechamel sauce.  Great also!  I don't remember much of the main course, except the chicken.,,dessert was ice cream!  The place was really overly full, and terribly noisy.  Some of our companions from the other Collett group, enjoyed their wine - a lot!  Ferry ride back to hotel in slight drizzle and ready for the next day trip home.  Our bus left at 8:15 a.m. for the ride to the Milan airport and took just an hour.  We were fortunate to have done web check in and so were at the gate in good time for the 12:20 flight home.  Huge, busy airport in Milan and long line for security.  A good flight although too little time in the Toronto airport for going through customs, getting suitcase and then going through security again with only minutes to spare before boarding for the flight to,VANCOUVER. ,we had 3:5 hours in Vancouver so certainly no rush there.  Limo picked up at airport in KELOWNA and home in bed by 2 a.m.  Of course I was awake at 6 a.m. 

Air Canada return trip was perfect...going on Air Canada Rouge, not great.  Definitely their cheapest option flight!  Wouldn't recommend it al all.  Breakfast was a slice of banana bread followed an hour later by a coffee.  Ah well, now home and enjoying the fall days.
