Venice - 04/10/2014

So Verona a city on water, canals full of boats and bridges, gondalas and speed boats. The place where parts of James Bond films were shot. This is a favourite place of mine, so many shops and small maekets, the scenery of all the water ways and mounds of bridges all different in there own way. I could take pictures all day! 

(First canal we seen after gettin off the train)

This day was different as the things we seen were much different. Ok we seen a church or two and a basilica, but I wanted to see the rest such as the gondolas.

After waltzing round through small alley ways and over bridges taking photos of the...

San Zaccaria Church
Doges Palace
Saint Marks Basilica
Teatro le Fenice - Famous Opera House
Rialto bridge - large bridge full of small shops
And getting a quick selfie


We ended up here is Prada, just what Tammy was waiting for! What's that she has found?? Oh my a purse, kinda seen this coming after she looking in Versace yesterday.

So anyway Tammy walks out with this and she even asked my opinion, not quite sure what to make of it if I'm honest.... Tammy asking for opinion that is.


A blue Prada Purse...πŸ˜†

Anyway, enough of that coz even I eyed up a Prada bag for myself at €800+!!

So food it was Tammy had a pizza and I had lasagne, nothing special oh and a bottle of rosΓ¨ between us. 

Feeling slightly tipsy as we hadn't ate much and it was pretty warm we went and grabbed a gondola ride πŸ˜ƒ


As you can see the guy was very cheerful and he whistled some tunes as we went around and gave us a bit of a guide. We went through canals and out into the main river. As the end I let the guy hold my DSLR (lucky git) to get a snap of me and Tammy and our guide, he realised it was a pretty quick snapping camera and got trigger happy as we called him (Happy Snappy) we got off and started walking, he shouted so when are you going to pay me, I completely forgot haha. Damn it I tried didn't I πŸ˜‰.

After buying an Italian made shirt and jumper we headed for the train with a few mins to spare we hopped on and get settled, so here I am writing this as we are still on the train, tomorrow is the drive back to nice for a night....yes!! Sorry gotta love nice 😜
