    Soggy books

    October 22, 2023 in Italy ⋅ ☁️ 17 °C

    This morning began with a cappuccino and some pastries before we got lost in the narrow streets of Venice.

    There was a marathon underway which congested much of the busy areas including St. Mark's Square and most of the main walkways, but we had fun walking beside the barriers for almost an hour watching the world go by.

    We ended up at a very cool bookshop where we had the chance to sit in a Gondala - this was nice because we decided against doing a Gondala tour as it was going to be 150/200aud and we'd have to share with 3 other people.

    After a while we headed back to the accommodation and undertook some more booking for future travels, trying to keep minimum 2 weeks ahead.

    We went for another afternoon walk, this time towards the Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute and we made our way back following the 'coast'

    Dinner was another serving of pasta, which I'm a fan of, before an early night.

    Step count: 23.2k

    PS. Didn't mention it yesterday but this hostel sucks, and seems to mainly be populated by mosquitoes
