Ahh Venice the place for Lovers...not so great for backpackers.  We started things off a little rocky when we realised that the hotel we booked wasnt even on the island.  Its really not fun to find a hotel in an unfamiliar place with a bag, weighing 100 lbs on your back...But things worked out eventually and we explored the canals of Venice 3x over...It was beautiful but we realised that 1 or 2 days of looking in glass shops would have been plenty.

We watched people make glass on the island of Murano...wonder what else they do there?

mmmm gelato and pizza.
