Venice.

VENICE.
DAY 9
This was our one full day in Venice. We awoke on the train, ate the breakfast we had packed in our bags and watched out the window as we approached Venice. The train arrived in Venice around 9am, which allowed up most of the day to explore. There were only a few sights that we had planned to see and in the end we decided just to explore, wonder and ditch the museums. Venice was cute. Lots of steps up and down the bridges and we were never able to find the same location twice as the alleys were so confusing. I had done a lot of research before the trip about what to do in Italy and one blog post stuck out to me, it was about how everyone should have gelato twice a day minimum and we now know why. We were more the once a day, but we certainly did not miss a day. The blog also explain the flavours and how to find an authentic location, I highly recommend doing some gelato research before you go.

We found a postcard of Baxter! 

First Gelato. 

A beautiful city. 

 DAY 10
After our first night in Venice we slept in a little, packed our bags and did a little shopping before our train. We found a hat for Baxter, a mask for Brent and got lost a number of times. Our hotel in Florence was not on our map, so we found a cafe in Venice with wifi to get directions to the Florence hotel. We then loaded up, grabbed some lunch and had lunch on the steps of the train station that over looked a canal (everything overlooked a canal). From there we got on the train for Florence.

A hat for Baxter. Apparently when I am excited I open my mouth wide.

Goodbye Venice. 

All packed up heading to the train.
