Long drive today as we drove up to Venice. What a terrific city! We started out with a gondola ride and one of our gondolas had an accordian player and singer on it. Our local guide then walked us throught the labarynths of streets to St. Mark's Square. It was pretty cold out, so I picked up an Italia sweatshirt that became my companion from then on. We finished up the day with a private boat tour for about 2 miles along the Grand Canal. |
