La Serenissima

Onwards to our next 'Grand Tour' destination, Venice, but not before we have enjoyed a really delicious breakfast at Jamie's Italian in the North Terminal of Gatwick airport.
The flight was very quiet, only 50 passengers, and landed 20 minutes early. We took the  Alilaguna water bus to San Stae & walked the short distance to our lovely B&B, Cima Rosa. Set in a pretty courtyard and with a view on to the Grand Canal, it was difficult to tear ourselves away  - especially when the complimentary bottle of Prosecco appeared!

 
 
 However, Venice was calling and it was a beautifully sunny afternoon. We walked along to the Rialto market admiring the views along the way - around every corner there was a photo opportunity.
