After spending the first week in Greece (read the post a few months ago!).. we flew over to Italy for the second week of our trip. By the time we arrived in Venice, it was almost sunset. We made our way from the airport over to the island and took the public boat right down the Grand Canal. After finding our hotel (Hotel Kette) and getting settled in, we managed to find a quick bite to eat and a liter of wine. Sleep was the main thing in store that first night so we crashed pretty quickly.
The next morning, we got up early, made our way back up the Grand Canal, hopped a bus to the train station on the mainland, rented a car, and drove an hour to the Italian Alps. We visited one of our wedding album manufacturer's facility in Arba/Sequals. It was a beautiful drive and we have a great time getting there. Coming back was another story since I missed the exit for Venezia off the A4 Autostrada and had to continue on for quite a ways until the next exit. All of a sudden, I was a little turned around and a lot out of control. I had a meltdown. Poor Bryan had to witness it. We finally made it back to the train station to return the car and back to the island we went.
We did as much as we could that evening and the next morning because we had to leave that second day around noon to go to Florence. So, I definitely want to go back to Venice so we can spend a little more time there exploring. Here are a few images from our trip. Those of you that are on Facebook can see these plus a few more on my Facebook page.
