Venice does it for Italy!

Well after the big let down that was milan, venice has done the job for the pride of italy. What a wonderful unique little city. Water taxi's, gondala rides, narrow paths that only leed to other narrow paths. Its fantastic.

You're always lost in venice. When you think you know where you are, you're either lying or completely mistaken. We took well over an hour to find our hotel last night and we only found it after asking 2 different hotels for directions. Again today we went for a 3 hour walk, only the first 20 mins and the last 5mins did we have any idea where we were.

But that doesn't take the gloss off the city, its just one of the many attractions and part of the fun.

Our hotel is nice and close to st mark's square so tonight we're trying our luck at getting a table in one of the nice resteraunts in the square.

We don't have internet access here at this hotel so we won't be uploading any photos for the next few days at least. But I'll keep the blog up to date when possible.
