We Did Our alarm and September (BOTH Took sleeping pills to make sure to get a good nights sleep I know That we'd be done with jet lag, Which We Are) We Did not I wake up till 10am. We Went to the store and I Vonetage Purchased to G-3 sim card Satalia know That I Could get internet anywhere in Europe, Even Where There Is No Wi-Fi service. COST WAS $ 35 for 30 days with 5 hours per day. Why can not the U.S. do that? They want $ 50 - $ 79/mo. For a 2 year contract. That's a rip off!
Ate lunch, as we missed breakfast. I Purchased a ham sandwich with shrimp sauce and 4:50 for Euros. Serinaded We were at lunch and then expected to tip the men. LOL - that's Venice for you.Then We Took off to hit A Few museums and Churches. First Stop Was The Dogg's Palace in Piazza San Marco and in the Church there. There Were Some Places That said "no pictures" ... but ... ummm ... Here are a Few of the "no picutures" accidently That Happened to Appear on my room.

Foun myelf a great man of good reputation But His heart WAS stone cold and he never wanted to go anywhere fun.

We then Headed Toward Our next destination on the way ... and saw a "few" thing in shop windows we "HAD to have". We then Promised Not to Purchase Any More "gifts" ... But as we Arrived at the Rialto bridge There Were discount vendors everywhere and well ... ummm ... shopping is addicting. We wandered off Trying to find St. Mary's Church and ended up finding two others and then found Some of Those "no pictures" On Our room. We got lost A Few Times But Found Some Great shops and Purchases made and I actually WAS 2 times today Told That I Had great pronunciation of the English language ... yes, I am Trying to use what I've learned and making friends doing so. Luke (who we met at the store Where We Purchased Our sim cards) invited us to go bar hopping tonight, But We Did not Go After getting lost, hunting down the only McDonalds on the island for photos. Deeanna got fries and coke ( I helped her with the Frys). For dessert Kiwi They sell for 1 euro. How funny is that?
and finding a hole in the wall to eat dinner we where too tired and cold and full of half liter of wine each. We asked how much a glass of wine and WAS IT WAS ONLY 3 euros - so we asked what a half liter and WAS He Said 5 euros. So we thought two glasses for 5 Was a good price, However the ½ liter WAS about 4 ½ glasses of wine ... lol Good thing there are no cars in Venice and the Water Taxi That drives us home (INSTEAD of walking).

Funny Tip of the Day: Since there are no cars allowed in Venice Ambulances INSTEAD They Have Water and We Just Happen to be there to see one go by blaring. We are learning new things everyday.
All in all it WAS a fun day with lots of great memories. We get up at 8am, head to the train station around 9 or so and the train leaves for Florence at 10:27. We Noticed A Shop That helped with train service we know Purchased Our First class tickets in advance. So ... Next stop Florence Italy. See you all there. Kyla
