We had all day in Venice so we got dropped off at the bus terminal then took a ferry on the Grand Canal to the far side of town and took the day walking back to the bus terminal. The grand canal is really big and it was high tide so it looked like water was coming into some of the homes.
The architecture reflected the centuries of Turkish ownership.
San Toma. Quite the architecture. We didn't get off the boat here, we kept going to the Piazza San Marco, which was so spectacular. and was on the far side of Venice.
Gondolas are all over the place but they are way expensive, like 100 euros for an hour ride or so. We were warned to save our money and take the ferry.
Another view of San Toma. Most of the people on the ferry got off at the Rialto. We didn't know why until we were walking back and came to the Rialto. I will show it in the next blog.
