We bought a three day water bus pass and intend to use it. Our first ride was to the S. Marcoula stop. We docked and set out on foot. The map I drew is quite nice, but pretty worthless. No problem! Venice is small and you soon run into another canal. We found the hotel Al Mascaron Ridente and are quite happy with our choice. The hotel is on a canal. I know, it' s Venice.
We had a snack of cicchettis (similar to a tapa or pincho) and wine. They were good! Venice seems to have a bar every 100 meters. Diego, our hotelier recommended we try Restaurante Vesuvio. It is more of a Napoli style pasta and pizzeria, but the food was very good.
We walked quite a bit after dinner. I had us convinced that we could make a circle back to the hotel. When I finally looked at the map I bought, I learned Venice had other plans. We turned around and returned the way we came. It was a nice stretch of the legs. Plus, Vicky was able to covet items at the shops and street vendors. We'll explore more tomorrow.
