Venice!!

Left friday morning by taxi to catch a train to catch another train to catch a flight to venice..although the weekend was very cold, i enjoyed it very much...

i went by myself, and i was scared at first, but this turned out to be one of the best things i could have done....first time in a hostel as well, so not scary!!!

in venice i saw countless museums, cathedrals, basilicas, and walked a billion miles....there were bridges and canals everywhere, most people there travel by foot or boat, as vehicles are not permitted once u get past the entrance to the island.

the food was great, especially the seafood and gelato.

even got to go out on the town b/c the people running the hostel were awesome and take guests out every night.....

the city is beautiful, day and night, and i knew not one bit of italian, and still made it through ok....got back on sunday as it was just a weekend trip, but this was a weekend worth all the money spend, and time i spent lost running around the city....

favorite painting was by kandinsky in the MoMA, called white zig-zags.....wonderful

movie night

what a waste of my time....now its almost midnight, and im still doing homework...
VENICE THIS WEEKEND!!!!!!!!!!

Good Day/Bad Day
