Venice

Venice 

Monday October 7, 2013

-We woke up and it was raining again but it didn’t stop us from going to Venice for the day.

-It took us some time to figure out how the train ticket worked but we got it eventually.

-Once we stepped out of the train station we were in Venice and the canal was right in front of us.

-It was really cool see it because it was not what I was expecting with the size and all of the designer shops around every corner.

-We walked an hour trying to get to where our boat tour was but had to stand on platforms because the water was so high. It was flooding the city.

-The tourists came from every angle—23 million tourists go to Venice each year.

-We stopped in a restaurant and got sandwiches before the boat tour.

-On the boat tour we went through the grand canal and got to see the city.

-Then we took a bus back to the train station.

-It was really fun and I am so happy I got to see Venice. I liked it a lot!
