Eight of us took the optional day trip to Venice on Friday. The fast train got us there in just two hours so we has a whole day to enjoy Europe's only pedestrian city. Everybody moves by boat or foot in Venice. Our "cruise" on the vaporetta or water bus gave us an opportunity to see how many different boats there are along with the iconic gondolas. The houses, small canals, bridges, churches and other sights made for a great tour of this unique city. After a short tour around St. Mark's Square everyone was off on their own pursuits of sightseeing, shopping and dining until we met again at sunset at the train station. You are invited to come along via the photos to see Venice today. More later . . .
