Venice is AMAZING. That's what I have to say about it. AMAZING.
I want to go back considering I only had one full day there and our insane tour guide literally ran us all over town the entire day. She was walking so fast she was loosing members of our group left and right. When I asked her to slow down she nearly had a heart attack and went off on me telling me I didn't have to come along if I didn't want to. Then she'd take us somewhere, not tell us what we were looking at, and then proceed to talk to quietly for anyone to hear her. The only thing i could make out were random sizzling and hissing noises she'd make as I attempted to dodge her wild hand motions. I could also tell when she didnt know a word in English because she'd proceed to hit herself on the back of head until she thought of it. It took all I had not to tackle her and Mandi was laughing at my frustration with her all day.
The next morning in Venice was a lot more relaxed and we actually had time to take pictures and look into shops. Pictures which I shall now proceed to upload for you...

Hello, from a fellow travelblogger! I'm going to be traveling to Italy in a month or two and was wondering if you could give me some advice on getting around. I want to see...well, everything...and thought that a train pass would be easiest. The only one I've seen offers just three days within two months - I'll be in Italy for a week and want to travel more than that! I'm also a student. Any advice? Email: travel_goddess@hotmail.co.uk
