We arrived at Santa Lucia station last night after quite a journey. It was not as bad as expected but it was longer than we wanted it to be.
And woke up this morning to this incredible view – good morning Venice!
Our hotel is located right on the famous Grand Canal in Venice, and we’ll be here for five days soaking up the Venetian life. From here we’ll head to Florence for a few days before heading home.

Last night when we arrived we took a famous water taxi to the hotel. Venice is gorgeous at night too.
And of course we’re mindful of the acqua alta – the infamous winter high tides. But we’re prepared with our temporary wellies!
Join us for this impromptu trip through some of the world’s most beautiful places. We’ll be here in Venice for four nights, then Florence for three, and finally Milan for one before we head back to Chicago.

How beautiful! Excited to read about all you see and do
Venizia! Nice choice! Hope the tourists don’t overwhelm you…where are you staying? Enjoy!
We’re staying at the Palazzo Canova in San Polo. It’s about 100 meters from the Rialto Bridge. So far quite happy with the choice!
