Back to my Venice Trip post~
waking up on my 3rd day in venice with a super mysterious yet romantic morning, so foggy we cant even see the house which is just 2 blocks away!
Had our breakfast in the hotel restaurant~
we were here early, so there is not much people yet~ ^^
finish eating, time to head out~!
again we need to walk our way into the city center, passing by all the beautiful canals and bridges again~
the doctor mask!
a scary medusa sculpture
pass by a Leonardo da Vinci exhibition hall
no time to go in yet, so just take a photo and run~
the art of Venice
we decided to take a different route to the city, so we can explore more of Venice
by the Grand Canal
look at the super thick fog!
flying seagulls!
we found a morning food market
so many food stalls selling local pastry! all smell and look so yummy!
what catches your eyes?
caramel apple =D
and lots of balloons! im not a kid anymore but still im feeling happy just be seeing all these!
we decided to try on the food, and ended up we choose a Nutella monster bun! inside got almost one whole bottle of Nutella!
well this is definitely not a good idea.. 2 of us only manage to eat half of it wtf what a waste!
once we get into the city, we went and bought out theater show tickets for that nights~ watching theater show in Venice yo~!
back in San Marco Square, SJ set the tripod so we finally get to take picture together~ this is the disadvantages of travelling by just the two of us! and once the tripod is set, we make full use of it and non stop snapping! =D
lol ya i notice they all look the same >.<
look at the amount of pigeons and seagulls behind us!
when its about time, head to the traveller's information office to wait for out tour to start~
only found out that there is a Grand Casino in Venice!!
our tour for the day start with a 45min Gondola ride~
this is Venice's traditional Gondola~

another couple from US is so kind to help us take a better photo of us lol~
here we go our Gondola Tour~ but everything is covered by fog!
we pass by lots of canals and bridge, and lots of hotel too~ and all these is those very expensive one! The Gondolier is so skillful, he estimate the turning radius accurately and its so cool! oh well he also act as our guide to tell us about some history and stories in here, also giving us lots of information about Venice too! plus~~ he sing a little bit during out tour, just like in the movies!
A short video clip recorded during our ride~ =D
45min later, we are back at the starting point~
