Peggy and I walked to the train station in Florence this morning and caught a train to Venice. We had a time constraint because we'd booked two tours with the same company for today in Venice. We got to Venice by noon. We took a a vaporetto to Rialto and managed to find our hotel. Then we took another vaporetto up to the tour meeting place and got some lunch up there. the first tour wasva gondola ride and introduction to venice. We then had a break and then a tour of the Doges palace. Then dinner at a Rick steves recommeded place with great salads and home to put our feet up. We've splurgrd here and have a canal view so as I write this I'm listening to taxi boats and gondoliers go by. We have 3 nights here so we can get some of our high interest things done.
It is just amazing to be back in Venice. It was extremely crowded at lunch but decent later. Lots of great sights.
