Venice

Did you know that there is not a single car, bus, truck anything in Venice??

Just boats and Gondalas. The city is amazing and is nothing like I have ever seen before.I went on a Gondola Ride!

If you can picture Melbourne, and the roads in Melbourne are all little canals. So the only way to get around is by boat, you hop on and hop off the boat at different shops,the shop windows face the canals. The town is full of narrow footpaths and Bridges that cross the cannals, and is completely unorganised in the way it is set out. It’s a guarantee that you will get lost of you tackle the town by foot. There is something to be said though about no traffic, the town is so peaceful.

You cannot trust the signs to get you around either in Venice either, Signs that have been put up on walls with arrows pointing to the nearest main area have been changed by local shop owners who paint over the arrows and put another arrow facing the opposite way just so you walk past their shops! Dodgy Wogs!

We had a Toga Party that night, all I will say is BIG Night!! Apologies to Stu for the drunken phone calls!

In the Middle is our Tour Guide Gus, and 2 Guys on either side are just people who were staying at the backpackers - Not even part of the tour! They saw the party and decided to Join in, However I think they misunderstood how the Toga was meant to be tied!!
