Ha! I was pretty sure it wasn’t an ooogie, but good guess. It’s a spurge hawk-moth (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyles_euphorbiae). Beautiful animal!

Venice is Jacinto's one 'must do' for our tour. In July. Oh, boy. While researching the bicycle storage boxes in Venice (too small for my recumbent?), we also puzzled if a hotel close to the allowed area for bicycles would have bicycle storage. In the meanwhile, I did more research and came up with the idea to ride from Chioggia, to Lido. Stay there - take a day to see Venice, then continue island hopping north/east to Punta Sabbioni. It sounds like we want to go for the 20E all day ferry pass? I am hoping for a better bicycling experience, if not less people intense. Doing this involves rerouting a week of our trip, but we will be able to stay within the same number of riding days, and I haven't made reservations yet.
