DAY FOUR
VENICE We all left the hotel about 8am on our way to Venice. We had a very overcast day but with all there was to see I don’t think it bothered anyone. The buildings are so beautiful but it does make you wonder if they are damp inside to live in? St Marks square was still a bit flooded so they have board walks for you to walk across but they are so packed. The gondolas cannot go down all the small waterways as the water is so high because of the tide and flooding, so the price of them…

The drivers have a lot of patience with the many ages and cultures they encounter. Our driver was Clive from Wales, what a fun and knowledgeable bloke he was, I would vote for him.

The picture book image you have of this country is just as it is, absolutely beautiful. We learnt a few bits of information from our trusty Clive, he is one of the best drivers I have encountered on coach trips. Every 18 year old does military duty for two years and then they get to keep their rifle, which must be locked away safe in…
