Venice

I didn’t particularly care for this town. It just didn’t appeal to me. I’m coming down with a cold and liable to be cranky.
This is a town for women. Rich women preferably. Or men with girlfriends. Every store caters to the feminine demographic. High fashion or Venetian glass. Too many people (95% are tourists) and too many pigeons. I went and got a slice of pizza and a gelato. Then I toured St. Mark’s basilica. Then back for more gelato.
I did take part in a gondola ride, but I wasn’t really into it. You do get a different view from the water though.
The others are off partying now, possibly bowling. I’m going to try and sleep myself better. (I blame the very little sleep last night. I was up late updating this blog with a keyboard that had “Y” and “Z” swapped.)
