A rainy day in Venice. Our cute little VRBO is just over 100 steps from the Grand Canal. We’ve got our Venice and Vaporetto Passes and are ready to hit the ground running tomorrow. We did a little orientation walk of St Mark’s square just to soak up a bit of the atmosphere—and with this rain I mean we were literally soaking up Venice. Half the fun was taking our grunting and chugging Vaperetto down to the city centre and back again to our St. Toma stop. Of course gelato is easily consumed even in the rain. Today’s flavour was Dolce Latte. You are Always in my Prayers. Love Mom.

The Grand Canal is crazy busy. Worse than Listowel on a Friday night!

Yes, Venice floods about 100 times a year...so people even say it is sinking.

1. What is a vaperetto? A boat that works like a boat..going from one stop to the next.
