We were up early due to the jetlag, and I went out for a walk around the area. It was misty when I got up but soon lifted into a really beautiful day.
We were changing hotels and moving into Venice itself, to a place called Hotel Bernardi. The hotel was small, but was really nice with a stunning room. All tucked away in a back alley of Venice.
To get to Venice, we caught a bus to the main station and then caught a river bus to our hotel, it was a nice way to get around, except when we had to get off, we were on the wrong side of the boat and had to work our way through all the people to get to the exit.
We decided to explore and walk around the whole of Venice in a big circle. It is probably only about 4 or 5km, but with all the side alleys, you can get lost quite easily.
We really enjoyed the place, it had a really nice feel to it, like you were really back in some other time. I think it was also because there were no cars about that adds to the ambiance.
Of course I had been dying to have some good Italian pizza, so for lunch and dinner pizza was on the menu ( together with some Gorgonzola gnocchi, yum…) The pizza’s must have been the best I have ever had, we couldn’t finish them, so took nearly a full pizza back to the hotel…cold pizza in the morning…nothing better.
