Venice

The Ride
A five hour car ride and ten minute train ride was not fun, like usual.

Apartment, Day 1
Our new apartment was small but a nice home for the next three days. 

Wandering, Day 2
The second day we went to a free walking tour. Then we went "home" for lunch, then wandered around Venice. We tried to remember where we live, found the grocery stores, squares, and bridges. We also saw a lot of gondolas.

Last Full Day, Day 3
Wandering again. Today we went for a boat ride to Lido, Murano, and Burano. Lido had a beach and yummy margherita pizza, tomato sauce, mozzarella yum. Murano had glass blowers, we saw someone  make a glass horse in about ten minutes, and a different guy make glass hearts for earrings in five minutes. Burano is known for homemade lace and has pastel coloured row houses. They were beautiful.
The gondolas.
