• First day exploring outside cannaregio

    September 4, 2025 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 73 °F

    We heavily exlored our neighborhood yesterday, found a really nice little quiet park, walked along the northern waterfront and finished the day with a great meal. Today we needed to go to the bank so after coffee (of course) we headed south to the san marco neighborhood. It was early enough that we didnt encounter the mobs and actually got to see/cross the realto bridge. We took a gondola back across the canal after banking and made our way back for a quick snack. Really saw that part of the city and it was beautiful. Early, you really get to see the way the city works, like disney underground, the canals are full of working boats, hauling delivering, moving etc. More exploration to come.
