Mitch always thinks ahead! I’m so grateful for him and all the planning and effort he puts into our travels. He’s always got things booked ahead of time and the tickets ready to go on his phone. He makes it look so easy. This trip was no different. He had tickets ahead of time for the water hop-on hop-off boat.
We started with a long trip all the out to the island Murano famous for their glass blowing. They had day trips you could book that included a tour, watching them create their art and lunch too, but we didn’t want to commit. We wandered around the island popping in and out of shops. We grabbed a few souvenir gift and got back on the water. From there we saw a park we definitely wanted to check out.
We had purchased tickets for Palazza Ducala or Doge’s Palace. Our gondola guide let us know that Doge means king. The golden staircase was amazing. Gold set the ceiling for a few flights. The walls were covered with enormous paintings but the details on the ceiling in each room was stunning. My neck started to hurt from looking up! On of the things we reas about was the Bridge of sighs. It was a prisoners last view of the outside world before being detained. It was fun to see from the inside and there were so many people taking pictures from the other bridges.
