Venice!






It has been a crazy last 10 days but we have had the time of our lives! Our travels began in the beautiful and unique Venice, Italy. We walked the beautiful streets along the canals, ate pizza & pasta, rode on a gondola, saw the Grand Canal, the famous Rialto Bridge, the Piazza San Marco, Basilica di San Marco, Palazzo Ducale, and the beautiful Italian churches. We were a little worried about getting around Venice without speaking any Italian but surprisingly 50% of the people there were from China, so Craig spoke in Mandarin the entire time haha. We truly fell in love with the beautiful city built on water, Venice.

Thin crust Italian pizza, this is in honor of you Dad.



We were shocked to find a Mcdonald's in the middle of Venice.
