Thursday 10 October – Venice
Had a great night’s sleep, accompanied by mozzies. For breakfast we went around the corner to a little café where they had a toast, eggs, coffee deal and took half the delicious toasted sandwich for lunch, along with some fruit we bought at a small greengrocer. We found a co-op and got some mozzie repellent for tonight. We also stopped at a few clothes shops, bought a couple of things and took them back to our apartment. We headed towards Pzle Roma and ended up catching the ferry from Marciola, getting off at the Piazzale and walking around to the café on the smaller canal where Graham and I had coffee in 2005. We spent ages sitting there and then, embarrassingly walked off, forgetting that we hadn’t paid! We were well on our way walking towards Rialto when I suddenly realised what we’d done. Hopefully we’ll get back to that side before we leave!
Walking for quite a while towards Rialto we got lost; a kind local gentleman showed us how to get to the local ferry stop, Basileo. This ferry took us around the outside past cruise ships back in to Rialto, so it was really interesting to do the circuit. We had a quick look at the shops and went home.
