Venice

Here are a few pictures we have taken. I have a ton more and will post more tomorrow. I am going to create a site that will also have all the pictures. For now, these will do. Mark and I walked all over Venice today. We went to St. Mark's Basilica and to the Doge's Palace. Wow...the architecture is breathtaking. We went to the Rialto bridge area and to the Bridge of Sighs. We had rain on and off, but it was still beautiful. The weather was nice today since we had overcast skies.
We also went to St. Mark's Square and watched the dualing orchestras. Very nice! We also had our first real Italian meal out. We had some pizza and a bellini. Delicious. Now we are back in our hotel to rest. Tomorrow we are heading to Murano to see the glassblowers and hopefully get some beads or nice jewelry. I did find a beautiful glass ring today that has a blue flower. I just love it and have worn it all day.

One thing I am having trouble with is how to have nice hair in Venice. Heehee...I guess if that is my only problem all is well. It is humid when I am drying my hair so I have to resort to a ponytail.
More pictures to come tomorrow. I will post once we get back from our outings. Enjoy!! Becky, just want to say thanks for the meal out! Now I see why you wanted to treat us; we will be so poor when we return to Colorado. (Hahahaha)
 

Jet lag????

Well, I think I now know what jet lag is all about. Mark and I didn't wake up until 9:49 this morning. I can't even remember the last time I slept past 7:30 in the morning. Crazy. We are getting a late start today, but at least we will be rested and ready to go. We are heading out to St. Mark's today. I will be posting pictures when we get back from our day out.
