At twenty-one, she was as eager for adventure as ever, and what greater adventure could there be for an American girl than a trip to Europe? Watching a Punch-and-Judy show in LondonâĻdriving down the Champs-ÃlysÊes in ParisâĻon to the Riviera and the picture-postcard blue of the MediterraneanâĻon again to Italy, Naples, Rome, Florence and, at last, to Venice and into a gondola on the Grand Canal, with a handsome young naval officer whoâah, but that would be telling!
