It was a long travel day but we made it! Venice is unbelievable. We keep looking at each other and saying “Are we really here?” It is very surreal. So, by the title of my post you can guess that I had some fierce jet lag! But I muscled through, after a two hour nap 😉   and managed to salvage the evening and end on a high note with some gelato! 

  The view from our apartment is stunning   

 The apartment is perfectly charming. Really cool beamed ceiling.  

 After checking in to our apartment, we went to Piazza San Marco, which is just a 2min walk from our place. Had some wine and ice cream and listened to music.    

      
  Below is the gate leading to the courtyard for our apartment building. 

 This is our courtyard 

 Access to the canal is right when you walk in!  

 We spent the evening roaming the narrow alleys of Venice. It was stunning.  

      
Tomorrow… More Venice! 
Ciao!
