Venezia

Awe awe

Caught the 10h15 train and it takes us about an hour to reach Venezia Santa Lucia. Today was one of those, no pressure just take in every moment kind of days, with near perfect weather conditions and low tide. Decided to walk from the station to Piazza San Marco via Rialto Bridge. It should be a 25-30min walk however with the tourist crowd and the January sale that has started we encountered lots of stopping and window shopping. I've been to Venice several times and I usually take lots of photos, not this time though, just enjoyed the slow walk and took in the impressive scenery.

Ending up at the Hard Rock Cafe  for lunch. While waiting to be seated I browsed the store and found this brass peace mood ring which, after contemplating for a quite while, I eventually purchased. Had myself a yummy hickory bacon cheese burger with a side of fries and crumbed onion rings and a Pepsi (I ordered a Coke and I hate that people think its the same thing, not a fan of pepsi, just saying).

Then we decided to take a different route back to Ferrovia where the train station is, and ended up being lost. Thats just great because being lost in Venice, with time to spare, is probably one of the coolest things, this is when you find the best little canals, bridges and alleyways, the true splendor of Venice.

Yes it was a short visit to Venice as the sun has set around 17h00 but I live an hours train ride away and will  soon be on another Venetian adventure.

*Bear with me as I'm still getting the hang of this blogging business, recording events in detail with photos and such.
