We said goodbye to our bus driver then boarded two water taxis to take us to our hotel. From there we walked to our lunch spot on Campo San Polo. All the squares in Venice are named Campo except Piazza San Marco. It’s the only one that can be called a Piazza.
Following lunch we walked to the Museum Fondazione Civici di Venezia which has the best collection of 17th century artwork housed in CA Rezzonico (CA stands for house). We found the room decor, ceilings painted in fresco and massive chandeliers to be of more interest than the paintings.
The last hour of the day was spent exploring the Grand Canal and many of the side canals in a luxurious water taxi.
Numerous toasts, sharing memories of the past ten days and over indulging in the Italian cuisine closed out our day and our trip. We made new friends and enjoyed the beautiful scenery of Northern Italy. Now it’s time to go home.
