Ah Venice!

So now we have been in Padua for a while and done a few day trips, one to Verona, city of a myth and one to Venice, a myth of a city.

Padua itself is quite impressive with a quite beauty and many famous frescos. It seems to be most visited for the Church of Saint Anthony and the varius bits of him that are said to be still found in the massive church built to honour his works. We found it great for the impressive B&B we have found and the markets, ristrantes and ice cream parlours living all around us.

Verona is fascinating for its understated charm, except were it has seriously cashed in on the Romeo and Juliet myth.

And then there is Venice, canals and places, markets and stalls, overpriced glitz, glittery, ornate awe inspiring, overpriced transport, full of charm, quite back lanes and canals magnificent churches and palaces, have I mentioned over priced? A great place to just be and absorb all around you.

What I really need is to upload some pictures but it is hard to do at these places. Oh well next time.
