2011.07.07 – Venice (IT) – Salzbourg (AT)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
We had breakfast again at our hotel. After bringing our luggage to the reception, we headed out on a water bus to San Marco Piazza. We considered for a moment to visit one of the museums but the cost and line-up discouraged us. We opted to walk some more along the streets and alleyways of Venice. We stopped and sat down, for a long rest, on a stone walkway at the edge of canal entrance. We had lunch at a local sandwich shop. After returning near to our hotel area, we took the local bus to Mestre, the shadow town of Venice on the mainland. We walked the streets for some time but there were little to see or do there. We took the bus back to Venice. We did a bit of grocery shopping at the Coop before returning to the lobby of our hotel where we finished waiting for our train departure time. We walked to the train station and while we waited for the train we bought some chicken kebab. On our 2nd<\/sup> class train compartment, we met two other single travellers. The first traveller was a girl from New Orleans\/Georgia who had been travelling Europe for last three months and the second one was a guy from Manitoba who had been studying music in the US. He was an accomplished pianist that was attending a workshop in Vienna. It was nice to chat about our respective travel experience with them.<\/p>\n\n\n
