Venice Day 2

Today we slept in a bit and woke up with one goal: exploration. Yesterday we saw all of the main sights Venice had to offer so today we figured we could see the less touristy parts. So we walked across the islands and made our way to the train station where we booked our next train, then we took a different, long route back to the hostel. We stopped and had ice cream while sitting and people/sight watching on the Grand Canal. Once we got back to the hostel, we were overwhelmed by the aroma of a dinner being made by fellow hostel-mates. We then decided to make our own dinner consisting of pasta, meat sauce, and sautéed veggies. After making friends with the girls who cooked before us, we all decided to hit the town and test some nightlife. We tried a bunch of different places, had another great time, and made some more friends! Venice is so great. We are sad to leave in the morning but excited to get to Rome as well!
