The final course was a big plate of meat (turkey, sausage and beef) and vegetables which we somehow almost finished. To top it off Carlo gave us a free tiramisu which he claimed, and we agreed, was the best in Venice. The coolest part was that the bill was like a puzzle straight out of Indiana Jones or Myst. We were handed a hinged box which opened to reveal a smaller oval box which contained a folded up piece of paper that was our bill. In return for such a memorable meal Lindsey graciously gave the picture she drew of the canal to Carlo who was so moved he swept her up in a big hug and said he would hang it over his bed. Laughing, he nodded to me and said I was "a very lucky man." It's very true.
