Venice, where the roads are made out of water


Today we have the Venice and the Plague tour. The link with the plague was somewhat tenuous, I was hoping for more stories of suppurating lesions of repugnance and rotting fields of bodies, but instead we visited a number of churches dedicated to thanksgiving after the plague had passed.

Lunch was at Alle Testiere restaurant, the hottest tickets in town with only 8 tables, for a delicious seafood meal.
