• Venice - Sunday

    June 23, 2024 in Italy ⋅ ☁️ 23 °C

    An early start to the day because we had a tour "Venice in a Day" booked for 0830. Allesandro, our Tour Guide was fantastic. A history teacher who obviously has a life long interest in Venetian history, led us around the streets of Venice before guiding us through the Basilica St Marco & Doges Palace over 6 hours (with a lunch break)!
    We arrived back at the hotel for a much needed rest and shower before walking to a quiet hotel restaurant 15 mins walk from our Hotel. We met Sheila and Fred (from Ave Maria) there and enjoyed al fresco dining with them before they took a night time gondola ride.
    Another marvellous day in this almost unbelievable place!
    For our last day tomorrow we are doing a 3 hour food tour!
