We drove to Venice (about 40 minute drive) and parked in a parking garage. Right next to it are the water taxis. We paid 16 euro for a 12 hour pass (one for each of us, Bella was free), so we could get on and off as many times as we wanted. This is the driver of our first one.
I've never been on a cruise ship (yet!), so I was amazed about how HUGE these are!! Realllly, really huge!
A police boat!We also saw an ambulance and that was really cool!
I wish this picture would have turned out better. The statues were gorgeous!
Bridges everywhere!
Gondola rides average 80-90 euro for 30 minutes.
We'll be back to visit many of these museums!
LOVE the Gondoliers!
Many pallazzos had their own private garden patios. It's still a bit early in the season but plants are already blooming and look beautiful!
Sublime frescoes!
No clue about these chimney shapes!
It was a gorgeous, sunny day, but a bit hazy too as you can see! Very romantic looking!Go to next post for Part 2!
