Day 14 last day in Italy
Last day :( today. We had an awesome day. We went to San Marco and saw this monstrosity of a church. The marble, the gold, the stAtues, the space...unreal! It was crowded so we saw what we can. We went for a long walk to find a new gelati place. I am so thankful for Kenny's research to find Kenny friendly foods because it always brings us to some new area and Helps with our sight seeing. This gelati place was in an area we have not yet seen and though we walked ...

We head back to the ferry terminal, only to find large numbers of tourists waiting to catch our ferry. We squeeze on board, and finally head off to Murano, ...
Grand Canal and around
... the entire stretch of grand canal for a much cheaper price, though the opportunity cost would be 'Privacy'.
Then we walked through the city with the final destination as St. Mark's Square. We chose to take small lanes and get the flavor of the Venetian life. The St. Mark's Square was getting crowded every single minute. We passed an entire hour just by people/pigeon watching. We then did a tour of ...
