A grand day out in Venice

(Lazy day 2)

Today I’d like to visit again this marvellous town which I haven’t been for about 20 years – and it was fantastic!
Just to have this day here I planned my whole journey so I could come to this place in the East.

I had no plan – shame on me – but this was absolutely no problem.
I got a ticket for the museums around Piazza San Marco and so I started the big city trip by sun.

Entering the museum of Basilica di San Marco I found fantastic paintings and historic treasures. Also the Museo Correr belongs to these buildings.

In the end I visited the Palazzo Ducale – just a few pics…

So finally I took the way back to the busstop by foot over the Ponte di Rialto and through the ancient town – off the beaten track.

This day closes with a little bit of rain and thunder – but only for s short time.

Grand day out in Venice – come and look, it was worth the pedaling!
