Venice!


Venice the city of water, canals, bridges and gondoliers. We arrived as the sun was setting and the buildings were bathed in a golden glow.


This is the Rialto Bridge which was the first bridge built crossing the Grand Canal. Kathy and I got caught up in the experience and decided to have a dinner at a restaurant right here. We knew it was expensive so we tried to keep some of the costs down by getting the kids personal pizzas but it still cost us $170 USD!
Not all the restaurants are like this. We got caught in a tourist trap that night but the next day we found a restaurant off the beaten path that had great food and fed everyone for $30. Lesson learned!
