Today was another great day of Venice.
We spent the whole day wandering from church to church taking in all the Art works. St Mark's Basilica is by far the most impressive of them all, mainly due to almost the entire place being glit. The Basilica di Santa Maria della Salute was also an impressive sight especially with all the works by Titan.
We had a great lunch at the Pier Dicken's Pub, Vanessa put the stand out plate with the stuffed olives for entree. We continued the wonder taking in most of the major churches in the city and finishing with the Doge's Palace. The most impressive collection of paintings lining the walls and ceilings I've ever seen. The palace itself is an impressive structure but the art work is breath-taking.
We've both settled in for a little rest before we head out for the night (last night we toured the streets taking a few night shots before hunting for some food). We've been walking for about 8 hours today and our feet are starting to hurt just a little.
Tonight we're going to try one of the local (same street) eateries so there isn't too much foot work.
Tomorrow we're going to explore some of the islands and check out the glass.
