#688 - VENICE DAY 2
Went for a run at about 9:30a.
Brought some pastries back for us for breakfast.
Had my first pizza in Italy for lunch! (Went with the Diavola - Closest thing to pepperoni you will find. It is a spicy Italian salami.)
Shopping. Shopping. Shopping. Couple fun facts. 1. Luxury brands like Louis Vuitton and Gucci are significantly cheaper than in the US because many of the items are made in Italy and other parts of Europe. 2. When flying back to the US you get a 12.5% cash rebate on any purchases made exceeding 150 Euros. All of this to say, we are very likely coming back from this trip with a couple of luxury goods!
Went back to our place to rest up for a bit.
Went out again in the evening and crossed the Ponte degli Scalzi for the first time. It is one of the four bridges crossing the Grand Canal and the second most famous after the Rialto.
Then, we had McDonald’s for dinner. Don’t judge us!
