Venezia on Thursday

On Thursday afternoon, Ross and I met up with Mark and Mary in Venezia. They were taking the train from Firenze, and we were taking it from Milan. Luckily, our train arrived first, so meeting up wasn't too hard! We dropped our stuff off at the hotel in the San Marco area, and set out to wander a bit. We strolled past an exhibit on Vivaldi and decided to stop in. Did you know that Vivaldi was a priest and wrote a lot of operetta? I guess I really only know his Four Seasons...

And we did make it all the way to Saint Mark's Square.

Beautiful in the twilight. We walked past the palace to find dinner, and got a view of the Bridge of Sighs.

It was a relaxing first evening.
