Summertime

Hey, excuse me.

I beg your pardon.

Hold on this for a second, would you please?

Yes, certainly.

Lift a little closer, you don't mind.

Up a little higher.

Thanks. Now, still.

This is Venice we coming into, lsn't it?

Yes, we will be there about two minutes.

This is the lagoon.

Oh, boy! Gotta get a shot of this.

Each one of these I used already. Haven't even gotten there yet.

Oh, thanks a lot.

Is this your first visit to Venice? Yes. Is it yours?

No. I've been here several times.

Several times, you have.

Yes. I hope you will like it.

Like it? I got to.

I come such a long way

I saved for a long time for this trip.

You think I maybe won't like it.

I'm sure you will.

But not everybody likes it in the same way.

Some people find it too quiet, some people find it too noisy.

And it is very noisy. but the majority find it very beautiful.

Well, I guess I'll settle with the majority.

Here we are.

Taxi. No taxi. Gondola.

How much, gondola? A thousand lira.

How much, bus? 20 lira.

Where bus? There.

Is that the bus?

How much?

Have a good time.

Hello there. Hi.

Where're you from? I'm from Ohio. How do you do?

My name is Lloyd Mcllenny from lllinois.

This is Mrs. Mcllenny.

I'm Jane Hudson. Excuse me.

Is that wonderful? Yeah, I guess so.

Why? Don't you like Venice, Mr. Mclhenny?

It's just a city. Now, Lloyd.

Are you going to Hon from here? Sure. Next stop, Parks.

That's name the ltalians are giving them We're doing all in ltaly.

Adorable France, Paris.

Yes, Paris. Belgium, Holland, Germany, Austria.

Southberry Festival Switzerland. Here we are in Venice.

Some itinerary. How long have you been at it?

We started off 10:30 A.M. on June 1 5.

When do you fly from.... September 9th.

This year?

Well, what do you know?

Our travel agent did a crackerjack job.

They planned every step of the way. Take a look at this.

Here is today's itinerary. 8 A.M. breakfast, 10, St. Marco Cathedral

10:30 to 1 2:30, l.A. I.A. What's that?

Independent actvity. We're allowed 2 hours of it everyday.

That's really something to take. I guess it is kind of unique.

You see, Miss. Hudson, this is our first trip abroad.

Mr. Mcllenny retires this year and we don't have any children.

So we just decided to have our little flame.

Where're you stopping, Miss. Hudson? At Pensioni Fiorini.

What do you know? We're there though.

Isn't that nice? We're now coming along to Pensioni right now.

We gonna stop at Titian Pertitian, It's the cuttest shop.Just cute

Here's your stopping off place coming up now, Miss. Hudson.

Put them down there, dear. One moment, Miss. Hudson.

I'm terribly sorry. I know they weigh a ton.

Pensioni Fiorini.

Thank you.

Hi.

Hi.

Hello. I'm Jane Hudson.

My travel agent must've sent a wire from Of course, Miss. Hudson.

We have your room. Would you register, please?

Here. Just your name, where you from and passport number.

So hot. Yes, it's very hot.

I'll fill in the rest.

Thank you.

Giovanna.

My husband used to say: If you are not gonna fire her, the least

you can do is to strangle her.

You speak English so well. Thank you, but don't worry, Giovanna

doesn't speak one word.

Let me help her. They're too heavy. No, she is strong like an ox.

I'll take this other stuff. Thank you.

That's our dining room. Here we have our sitting room.

Would you coming please. Thank you.

Oh boy! This is lovely! Good. Would you give your things.

Oh thanks. I'm so happy to be here. Instead of a hotel full of

tourists, like me.

Excuse me one moment.

Wow!

Do you know Bourbon? Oh yes.

I smuggled it in. It's very good whisky.

You want some ice? No. Thank you. I'm determined

to learn to drink without it.

You 're very willing. Completely.

Half ltalian. Half American.

Is this your first day in Europe? How did you guess?

You traveling all alone? I like it.

I would hate it. I'm an independent type. Always have been.

You're a writer? No. Fancy secretary, really.

Cheers!

This is nice. I keep saying that. I don't mind.

This is my business. Here's my home for many years.

When my husband died in a war, this place has been Pensioni.

I enjoyed it, though.

And it's very pleasant to make money without moving.

Oh, hi. Ths is Miss. Hudson.

I'm Phyl Yaeger. Hello, cookie.

Be seeing you.

Cute. Yes.

Don't you want to see your room? Thank you.

This heat does things to me.

He is an artist. He has been here for sometime.

When she is not singing, she is playing that terrible machine.

I like the singing. I like the machine. It's ltaly, isn't it?

Is it? To me.

I put you high up, so yo can have plenty of air.

Thank you. It can be very hot, you know.

Across the lagoon, you can see Murad,

That's where they make the glass.

Here you have quite a nice view.

Thank you! For what?

For this.

You know I met a girl on the boat coming over,

In America, every female under 50 calls herself a girl.

Really? Who cares.

Anyway, this girl on boat was waiting. For what?

She was going to Europe to find something

That was way back in the back of her mind.

Part seeing things and getting some culture that was about here.

Perfume about here, let it loose for once about....

We won't go into that, but.... way back, way way back in the back

of her mind was something she was looking for....

What? A wonderful, mystical, magical miracle.

To do what?

Beats me. I guess to find what she's been missing all her life.

Well. I better take a shower. Yes.

Gallaria at Dermania and the church of.. What is it?

They're all alike to me. You should see the Bianelli.

Pardon? That's the big artist.

If I have one more look at a painting, I yip.

Excuse me, but Mrs. Yaeger's husband is an artist.

Oh, well, say, Pardon me, ma'am.

I don't understand pictures, and I got bad feet to to standing.

I know how you feel.

When I first fell in love with Andy,

I just had to get to like pictures.

So I looked and looked, and one day wonderful thing happened.

I knew what I was looking at. Kind of.

Would you have seen any of Dieaga's painting?

He had a one-man show in New York.

He sold the painting to the Toledo Museum.

You must be very successful.

Successful?! That show was four years ago.

Well, come along. Don't go. Let's have a drink.

I like to but this nonsense is wrecking my digestion.

Pardon me, no disrespect for Tanniea.

You're always on the same line.

How to make friends and influence people.

I'm sure he didn't know what he was saying.

Of course he didn't. He is insensitive man. Has no heart. Not much.

He is one fool with miserable belly. He probably likes French food.

I must say I did.

It's so refined. In ltaly, you sit down to eat and eat a meal.

In Paris, you sit down, what do you eat? A sauce.

In America, buy Mac, whatever it is, he sits down,

What does he eat? Birds, only birds.

And you want me to get excited about a man like that?

Good-by.

Have a drink. No, thank you.

Drago? Is that right? Right. C'mon, we gotta get going.

Cookie, have a drink. That will do you good.

No thanks. Drago before you go?

No, we're late for dinner. We take you up on that drink, though.

Sure. Well, that leaves us. Or does it? I guess it doesn't.

I'm dining with an old friend. Would you care to come with us?

No, thank you. When in ltaly, you should meet ltalians.

Mr. Ferstino is in the government. Please join us.

Two is a company. A sad sin.

Mr. Ferstino and I are, for several years now,

We've been unexcited.

Well, pardon me. Sure you won't have a short one?

I don't want it. Thank you. May be I can persuade my self. Drago?

How do you pronounce that?

There are two people back in the states I wish to hear.

They're darling couple.

Rather like the Yaegers, really. Only older.

Not older than me. Nobody is older than me.

I am. In ltaly, age is an asset.

If it is, I'm loaded. Now you do have to go.

Are you sure you're not come with me?

No, thank you. Okay.

There is no holding me.

I guess I'll have dinner by myself tonight.
