Day 11: Venice, Italy

How to describe Venice....the land of too many steps, confusing roads, romantic alleys and boats. I have been loving Venice! We have been spending our days wandering through the streets...and I literally mean Wandering!! Even with each of us carrying a map not once did we ever find a road we were looking for! We would wander through the streets and alleys until we'd stumble upon something we wished to see. It was actually kind of fun...until it was time to go home and it took an hour to find the bus station! :)

The Gondola....now this is what several of us were most looking forward too...and we were not disappointed!!! The ride was marvelous!! Our gondolier took us thru the Venice canals and water alleys. On one occasion he began to sing an Italian song...much to our delight!! It was quite a romantic ride...or it would have been if our boat hadn't been full of girls. :)
Al and Irene enjoyed it just as much as we girls!
