Venice‏

Hi there everyone - Ciao

It is around midnight here so I apologise if this update is a little lame with regards to content / length...
We've just returned from a huge self-guided marathon tour of a day exploring Venice and it has to be one of the most unique places I have ever had the opportunity to visit.
From the bell-tower in the square near San Marco's Basilica (a beautiful cathedral with a ceiling covered in golden leaf) you can see the entire Island city of Venice.
We ventured through most of the central city and back from Coast to Coast... And for those that haven't been it really is just like in the movies. And not quite as smelly as some people have lead me to believe. Either that or my armpits were just getting a bit overpoweringly feral by that stage so I was immune to the smell of fetid sewerage. One or the other :D Haha
So we passed on the 100 euro (200 NZD) gondola (boat) ride around the canals of Venice which while it sounded ideal was a little out of our price range...

Carolina will be uploading some photos to go along with this update so while I won't spend much time explaining things I hope the shots we send through do a bit of the talking for me...

Tomorrow we are back off to London in the evening in transit to Poland for the start of our ten day training experience. Pretty much over the jetlag now so really looking forward to it. At least the vertigo doesn't make me fel like we are going through turbulance while training :D

Take care and peace out
Ciao
