Venice

Instead of going straight to Florence like we planned, we made a spur of the moment decision to spend the day in Venice before. We took trains through Italy as we traveled and it was perfect! Super easy, comfortable and stress free. We mostly just spent the day walking around, eating pizza and gelato, and sight-seeing.

Most gondolas charged 80 euros per trip but we talked ours down to 65! Split between 5 of us, it ended up being pretty reasonable! We made freinds with the guy, Giovani, and he even showed us pictures of his 5 year old daughter...or as he said "My sexy little baby" haha (I dont think that translated exactly how he meant it to...)

I really liked the city because the canals made it different from anything I've ever seen. However, it was small and was FULL of tourists.
