Monday: Not Merchants of Venice. We were tourists for the whole day. This hotel started our day off with a nice spread for breakfast. I'm even happy knowing that's how we'll start before tomorrow's travels towards Milan. We had to take the train to the end at 1 Euro. Then we started by buying 14 Euro water taxi tickets at the terminus. These tickets were valid for unlimited travel for 12 hours.
We stopped at the Rialto stop and walked around. Eventually, we, as all tourists, ended up at San Marco. The lines were long and the pigeons thick. We bought tickets for the Campalini bell tower. During today there were a few times when whispy clouds could be seen but overall it was a mostly blue-sky day. The view from the tower was great.
The rest of the day is rather a blur. We first walked around, then rode around on the boats. Luckily we took more than the standard boat route 1 and therefore spent time on the island of Mirano too.
We finally called it a day after ten or so hours. We trained back to Mastre and bought beer, juice, bread and cheese, yogurt, fruit at a supermarket. That was dinner.
Maybe we'll stop in Verona on the way across the north tomorrow. I doubt we'll bother to see Romeo and Juliet's balcony considering the play was a work of fiction and the prized landing just a clever tourist trap. We don't know if there's much to bother with in Milan. Yet, we'll decide more as the days come to pass.
