Our Second day we went to museums and Churches... you could purchase a pass that let into a lot of the museums and churches the bell tower was not included but we were glad we did it... St.Marks square is the hub of everything we started our day out there!!
Us on top of the bell tower it had an amazing view that Josh looked at and I peeked over at!!
Part of the view...
Okay so normally there is a massive line to get up to the top and we thought hey there is a short line lets go!! Not thinking to look at the clock... well guess what it was that time for the bell to ring!! It was so loud!!! It didn't seem to bother Josh but dang it killed my ears!! You can hear it ring at the bottom of the page!!
Once again a stupid American thinking it is funny stick your hand in a mouth when in fact this is the part where you write a note and place inside of her mouth because you had to gossip about someone!! Good Idea... then I wouldn't have to repent so much about gossiping, LOL!!!
One of the many palaces of Venice had this really cool water fountain out front with really big goldfish that Josh was going to pick up but didn't!! No Sushi for you!!
Just to show you a cool little side street that you can get lost down!! Which is the fun part of Venice just let the streets take you and follow them you always end back at St. Marks Square!!
We had purchased a mask but this isn't one this is the Casanova mask Josh thought he could try it on for size but as you see doesn't fit him at all!! He is only a ladies man to one person!! Sorry!!
Our next little adventure by the Rialto bridge that has awesome shopping for a little island that has all its stuff imported it sure had great shopping!! I LOVED IT!!! But we took our Gondola ride down here because I just couldn't walk anymore!!
Our boat I had to admit was the coolest!! The Gondolier man told us his is the most decorated and one of the older Gondolas out there... I thought he was just trying to get our money but compared to some of the other ones it was Very Pretty and well decorated!!
Just to show you the path he took us down So Beautiful!! You can see the little Gondola sign showing to go this way!! But boat taxis went down the same way we did!! So I don't think it was just Gondola's that could go down here!!
Just to show you yes the water we were taking the ride on gets its sewage emptied!! Sick huh??? That one was a smelly pipe let me tell ya!! SICK!!! I suggest going the time we did because the Grand Canal was not smelly but the sides streets had a little smell not to bad!!
Well that was the end of our Awesome ride!!! You need to does this!!! No matter the cost but remember to talk them down a lot!!
We had a chance to eat at a restaurant right beside the grand canal which was so awesome and beautiful!! I had an amazing Lobster and Josh had a seafood pasta!! SO GOOD!!!
Finally to end our day we listened to Music by St. Marks Square and drank a very expensive soda but worth it all because of the great atmosphere and beautiful music!! What a great way to end a perfect day!!!
