...was very nice. Stinking hot, mind, at 29C or mucho mucho fareinheit.
The guide books all say that Venice has bad food. But, hey, how bad can it be? This is Italty after all. Well, it can be very bad. I did a bunch of research to make sure we only went to traveller recommended restaurants, and the food still blowed. So it you are planning to visit Venice, take enough food with you to last the duration.
Apart from that it was a great experience. Imagine the most Londonny parts of London all merged together - a Beefeater, red buses, the royal family and some knife crime. Put them altogether and you have an intense tourist experience.
Venice is like that, not just in one street, but in every square inch. It is a theme park that wasn't created by a marketing weasel. I am not sure whether that is good or bad.
Anyway,it is well worth a visit, but don't do more than 2 days. And take your own food.
