A day in Venice

The rain stopped over night and a beautiful and sunny day smiled at us! It was a good day to visit Venice.

Below are a series of photos I took while walking around this beautiful city. I reckon it's in my top 5 of favourite cities to visit.











I really liked this poster.









We made our way to San Marco square first.

Then we crossed the big water and visited the island of Murano.









It was a gorgeous day and we left Venice at 20:30, having walked around for nearly 7 hours.

2007 wrap-up: Venice

If you ever don't know where to go for a short visit you should seriously consider a trip to Venice. We combined it with our holiday in Croatia because it's easy reachable from Pula and other coastal cities.

You are not likely to find anything like Venice anywhere else. Eventhough we come from Amsterdam which has a lot of canals and bridges as well venice was still so very different.

Get yourself a map and DO NOT follow a guide but explore on your own. Take 2 or 3 days if you want to walk everywhere. Venice is not big. 3 days will be enough to see most.
