Venice Part 2 !

10:57 AM claire 0 Comments

As I mentioned we spent 3 days here so here are more pictures :)

The next day we decided to head towards St Marco's square (of course right) And Venice is known for their masks and all. Some of them are a little freaky but they are all handmade and individually designed!

AND LOOK HOW CHEAP ALCOHOL/BEER IS!

About 1.30 euro a bottle of stella.

Bailey's for 10 euro. Which is 17 sing. Here they sell it for fifty bucks.

You know a place is commercialized if there's a MacDonald's.

Of course after hearing all the reviews...

Clock tower.

If you see this bridge you are on the right track haha.

We chose THIS gondola.

100 euro for 3 people. Lasts about 40 mins? Or was it 30? Can't remember but the time really flew by.

I know it's expensive but this is the market rate for 3 people. If you want you can get more people to sit together and it'll be slightly cheaper per person! Plus it's an experience.

Our gondola man! Who spoke english of course.

I would advise everyone to get a friendly one who talks to you and tells you about the places that you visit.

Rowing!

The next time I visit I'm going with my future husband so we will go on the night gondola. But at night you won't be able to see these beautiful reflections on the underside of the bridges.

He has to bend down each time! So i guess the money's worth it because his back would hurt? Haha and he will need to go for a massage.

The view from below.

Remember this bridge earlier?

Looks wayyyyy better from a gondola ;)

So the gondola man let me move from the back to the front any time during the ride and apparently when you go UNDER the bridge you must make a WISH!

Can't really remember what I wished for but I did! :)

You can snap some nice pictures too. The public transport boat (they don't have buses in Venice haha) does not pass by here so I suppose that's how gondola men make money.
