Family Vacation Venice 2013

This our first destination in our European Vacation 2013

Venice, but first we had to get there...



Weary Travelers, some didn't fair as well as others... 
I find it amazing how these girls can sleep just about anywhere at anytime, quite a skill. Clearly the guy at the next table was jealous.


Arrived and aboard the water taxi to the hotel, looking a little more awake this time



Up and down small canals in search of our hotel.

Still looking...
 
 
 
At our hotel finally.
 
 
 

 First item on the agenda after checking in... Girls need to eat...




 
Second item on the agenda after checking in... Girls need to shop...



More Shopping


 
 
 




 
Canal view from our balcony.




San Marco Campanile (bell tower)
 



 


Shopping can only lead to more eating








Energy by Gelato... need to keep up your strength for more shopping




Free recipe









And of course...


Finally something I am interested in, the architecture


Detail from arch above - St Mark's basilica



Amazing workmanship







 
And back to shopping...



First glimpse of our cruise ship from the Bell Tower in San Marco Square (San Marco Campanile)

 
 
 

Departing Venice via Water Taxi to the cruise ship.

 
 



On board the Royal Princess for the Grand Canal sail away.



Small yacht down there, that was  at least 150 footer...


 
A view from our balcony


 Next stop Athens...
