Day 2: Venice bridges, St Marco (Patron Saint of Venice; very important figure once you delve into Italian/European History. Otherwise Mark, by the way). Murano (Glass island—glass not very pretty), Torcello (rustic isle) and Burano (fisherman’s isle, and very colourful) islands. Venice truly a place of beauty. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Day 3: General wandering, that Famous Church on St Marco’s Square whose name I cannot remember.
