Venice



We were sad to be leaving France because we had such a good time. The next part of our big trip was starting and we were going to Italy which I was excited about. My Mummy and Daddy had told  me there is lots of great gelati, pizza and pasta.

Our first stop in Italy was Venice. We flew into the airport and had to get a boat instead of a bus or train because Venice has no roads just canals. We went to our apartment dropped off our bags and had a big walk around the town.
 

I really liked crossing all of the bridges and seeing all of the boats and gondolas trying to go through the really narrow canal streets.  Instead of having normal parking spaces like we are used to they had wood sticking out of the water for people to tie their boats to.




The buildings were really close together and streets really narrow. There were lots of shops and market stalls with great things to buy. I bought a mask.


Then it was time for something I was really looking forward to, Pizza. We found a little pizza shop and bought a big slice of really yummy pizza for my dinner. It was bigger than my head! For dessert we had, you guessed it, gelati. That was really yummy too.


 

Venice was very different to every other place we’ve been on our trip and I really liked it.
