Been very busy exploring .
Since our last blog entry we're been to the Cinque Terre which was great.. especially our stay at hotel Mary, in La Spezia.
We also got to see Levanto and some of La Spezia..
Now, would you believe it's 9.30 PM on Thurs 26th and we're sitting in a rocking boat station at the Ospedale boat stop in Venice.. in order to catch up. We were lent the use ofr a Voafone USB internet stick but had no signal at the studio as the 4 storey buildings are packed so closely together.. The GPS does not work here.. it's amazing .. at every turn there is another piazza with another huge church!!
Yesterday, on arrival, we explored the area over many bridges, down little laneways.. very intriguing..
today we walked 20 mins to discover the San Marco Palazza. There were MANY people!! and many gondolas!!
it's amazing how everything is transported by water.. an ambulance has just gone speeding past at 40 knots .. lights and sirens!!
We also had a free tour of the glass factory..
Wendy is getting seasick in this boat pontoon!! every boat that passes has bow wave !!!
We hope to catch up again tomorrow!!!
