The city of canals

---

On the ferry goin along the grand canal and the ambulance goes past, a boat! there are no cars or motor bikes at all in Venice all boats! crazy shit hey!

It's not a very big city and i have all day, so i'll just tour about, no need for a map! Over this bridge, along that canal, through this skinny walkway, over that bridge, into this chrch (mainly to warm up), over another litle bridge & along the canal for a bit. Wait a minute this is all lookin a bit familiar, i'm back to where i bloody started from! Venice is a labyrinth of canals & walkways, it's crazy!

I got into Venice & it was bloody cold. I got to the hostel which was actually a hotel doin shared rooms. so i was in a 2 bed hotel room and the first night i shared with an Argentinean guy.
The next day i bused it into Venice and it was pretty impressive a labyrinth of canals comin off the grand canal. I walked around, went to a church, watched a few gondolas, sat in on a service in another church (mainly to warm my frozen hands), went to saint marco pier, had a gelato, walked around the piazza s.marco, another church, an instrument exerbition, then to pont de rialto (the lovers bridge) and then back to the hotel for a beer and a top pizza.

That night i had another aussie lad Andy from MEL. in the room, so we chatted shit over a beer for a while. then the next day i packed my shit and we went into Venice in the snow! i got my cruise ticket set and then we got the ferry up the grand canal to the Pont de rialto & had a coffee & a donut (cheers Andy).
So i said goodbye to Andy & trekked it to the harbor through the bloody snow (old cardboard box on me head n all)

next i cruise to Greece.

You Stole Ryan's Hat!
Hey you. I remember playing as Lara Croft in Tomb Raider II in the canals. You had to shoot people from boats and stuff... that's probably how close I'll get to them. Good to see you're getting around again! And that you're alive. I got my lip pierced! Now I'm even crazier looking. I'll have to send some pictures. Hope to hear from you soon.
