Venice: Day 1 - Part 3

After we got back from our awesome tour we were hungry and ready for lunch. We found us a nice restaurant and I ordered me a yummy pizza.  It is Italy after all, so pizza was exactly what I wanted.  It was really good.  Kind of spicy and delicious!
After our yummy lunch we headed out to explore Venice.
They have these amazing canals that run throughout the city.  The people who live there don't have cars they have boats.  They bring in food and supplies by boat and take out the trash by boat as well.  It was pretty interesting to see the garbage boats and how they bring in supplies to the shops and restaurants.
We did lots of shopping in the shops and just enjoyed walking around and taking in the sites.  So many old, beautiful buildings and churches.  Many cool bridges and canals.  You could definitely get lost wondering around the island taking in the sites.
We got some yummy gelato as we walked around and shopped.  We would be walking in between buildings and then they would all open up into a really neat opening.  Some would have benches, others cafe seating, and some would just be empty.  
Diana was meeting us around eight at the train station so we made our way back to the train.  We just had to call Diana once we got to our station and she came super fast.  It was a great day in Venice and we all had a great time!
