A Day in Venice
Early in the morning I got up to take my flight to Venice. And I wasn`t complaining, because for a minute it looked like the ash cloud would interfere with my travel plans. Luckily by the time I left, flights were running normal again.
 Venezia Express: every 30 minutes there is a bus. It takes 20 minutes (depending on traffic) to get from the airport to Piazzale Roma. 3 euro/one way or 5,50 euro return included* This was very convenient, as I was staying at a hotel near Piazzale Roma, Hotel Al Malcanton. It`s a small hotel located a 30 minutes’ walk from San Marco. Advantage of staying outside the Gran Canal is that the food and the shops are more affordable, because the closer you go to San Marco, the higher the prices are. On the first day in Venice I met up with Michela (@rockytravel from Twitter) and we walked through Venice to see the San Marco Square. Venice is nice to explore on foot, this way you have the opportunity to find hidden gems, see the little streets and canals. There are signs all over the city pointing you to the right direction of San Marco Square and the Rialto bridge. A few of the pictures will show you how beautiful it was.      The walk we made, was similar to the “Walking Tour Venice” Michaela described earlier on my website. 
What better way to end a day in Venice then with a cappuccino! Return from a day in Venice to the HOMEPAGE
