I didn't think that it snowed in Venice...ever. I was wrong. Luckily it was the morning we were leaving to go home, so it didn't ruin our trip. It did, however, make the drive back home a little bit longer. People in this part of Italy must not be used to the snow and it shows in their driving. We were going about 35 mph and the speed limit is usually 78 mph. In case you think that road conditions were terrible, if we had been in Utah, in the same snow storm, people would have been driving at least 60 mph.

It had also snowed quite a bit in the mountains
This was right after the Mount Blanc tunnel
We returned home to about 3 inches of new snow, not counting what had already melted
Luckily the kids are more like Pete when it comes to snow and cold weather
They were excited to jump right in with their snow gear and shovels
