Venice

Venice was somewhere that both myself and Paul had always wanted to visit. For the both of us it was as beautiful as we imagined. We stayed at a campsite outside Venice with the plan that we would take the boat there.....however it was a Sunday and no boat service ran so we ended out driving in...lucky for us this was before peak time so didn't have any trouble with parking and traffic. I have to say that the Italians have CRAZY campsites......you could go on holiday for a week and not leave the campground... well if you are a family anyway (Italian do the hokey poky at 10pm wasn't too exciting for us). We spent the day walking around the city that is built on 117 islands and managed to get a bit lost. We had a look at all the main buildings including the Basilica Di San Marco and the Doges Palace. Was a good day and one of the highlights of our van trip.
