Venice, it is the place where the streets are crowded with people, the canals are crowded with Gondolas and water Taxi, and every where there are people selling masks unless
you get out and about like we did....
It appears most visitors to Venice concentrate on St Marcs Square, Doge's Palace and the Rialto bridge, and although these are great sights and must be seen we were glad we also stepped out of these areas.
Quite often we just walked out from our B&B in no particular direction. On our first afternoon we saw the gardens on the east end of the city, and many local venetians walking, playing and relaxing. Other days we would stumble upon a square with a little cafe and just local workers having lunch, dinner or a coffee.
These places are the memories we will take from Venice (along with the crowds of St Marc's) that we will treasure.
