venice

on the way to venice we stopped at a town to see a museum but we also saw a man on the street juggling knives and fire and bowling pins and plungers! we made it to venice and it just did not seem real. it was so beautiful and old. it is one of the most touristy cities i have been it so part of the time it seemed like an amusement park where people come to play and buy the goodies and trash the place. because of that too it was hard to find good food (as evidence by our first night dinner) so we had a great break and had chinese food one night and hard rock cafe the next! it was way fun, gotta say :) we took a gondola ride and took a trip to murano, the glass island, and saw a factory and a little piece of what it is to make glass.
