Our first day took us on travels through Amsterdam before we arrived at breathtaking Venice. What a beautiful city. When we arrived in Venice, we were met by our great tour director Osciri. We were a quite tired group, but once we arrived on our water taxi, something woke us up. It was probably the stunning sights of Venice and the many islands that make up this great city. We arrived at our hotel after a 45 minute boat taxi.
Once at the hotel, we took about a 45 minute break to freshen up and then we were off to St. Mark's Square, We spent most of our day shopping, taking in the sights and climbing up towers. At about 6:30, we enjoyed a fantastic dinner on our first night in Venice. We ate seasonal risotto with peas and carrots, turkey and gravy and a wonderful apple pie. After dinner, we were quite tired, but some of us were able to stop for gelato. Today we will head back to Venice to take a city tour with a local guide. We will visit Doge's Palace, the church and take a Gondola ride as long as the weather holds up here. We are expecting rain, but lets hope that doesn't happen. More tomorrow.
