Venice, Italy Mar 31, 2013 Rialto Bridge! Made it here again today, but this time we walked from our hotel via the many shops and eating and drinking establishments along the way. This walking is thirsty work, even in the cold and rain!!!
Venice, Italy Mar 31, 2013 Heavens ..... Found an Irish Pub on our walk in the rain this morning. Perhaps like finding a church service nearby at 10am, it was all meant to be!!! Salute!! Xx
Venice, Italy Mar 31, 2013 Had a lovely evening with a light meal at a restaurant on the Grande Canal, just up from our hotel. Enjoying the peace and quiet of our hotel outdoor restaurant bar area now with a couple of wee JDs and Bwian's cigar. A beautiful finish to our fantastic stay in Venice. Off cruisin' tomorrow on the Costa Magica - first stop - Bari in Italy. Buona notte! Xx
