Venice smells like weed and wee

Early start again, as we crammed onto a local metro bus like sardines (much to the dismay of the locals). There reaction was something like the picture below.

Babi de boopi!

We got into Venice just as the weather turned to custard and we did our walking tour of Venice, completely saturated. Venice is just as crazy as you would imagine it to be, all the roads being made of water. We got to St Mark's Basilica which was at this point just a giant swimming pool. We stopped off at a place that did Lace for a demo (I've gotta be honest, machines can do all that now so hand made lace that costs 120 Euro just doesnt do it for me). We then had our gondola ride (I got told off by the boat man for touching the sides). It was ok, felt like the boat was going to tip over at any point (and you would NOT want to land in that water, trust me). 

What lies behind those smiles is a nervous terror of falling into the bog of eternal stench.

After the ride we had some lunch and then went back to the Basilica for a swim. 

Amber was getting a bit tuckered out so we made our way through the streets to get back to the metro station. I needed to pee so bad at this point that I had to duck down an ally while Amber spotted for me (thats right, I pissed on a street in Venice, deal with it). We navigated our way back to the hotel with relative ease and by this time it was dinner time, we went over to a really nice Japanese restaurant for dinner (seriously delicious Tiramisu there, zomg). Then we went back to the hotel for sleeps.

Theres that nervous terror again

Playing in the massive rain puddles was fun, despite the cigarette butts and used heroin needles.
