Day in Venice
Bridges, canals, palazzo, gondolas, that's what this was all about. You'll see how and what a famous city lives on the water.
There will be everything "as you like" - a lot of walking, a lot of watching and of course taking pictures.

Venezia Mestre Railway Station (XVY) (Stazione Venezia Mestre)
Today there will be a lot to do - plan an early rise, and breakfast can be missed or limited to a cup of coffee with croissant (an hour and a half later we will certainly fill this gap).
In the morning we leave early for Mestre station, where almost every ten minutes trains "to the island" leave for Venice Santa Lucia station. Quickly buy tickets (by the way, you can do it the day before) and do not forget to compile them just before boarding.
The train runs along a dam laid out on the Venetian lagoon - water from all sides. It won't take long, 15 minutes.

Stazione Venezia S. Lucia
We leave the station building and there she is - Venice! Before us is the Grand Canal and our first bridge. How many more of them are there today... If you're interested, you can start counting.
Together with all of them we cross over to the opposite shore and head for a maze of narrow streets, canals and bridges. We need to get to the market and the Rialto Bridge.
It's going to be hard to get lost and pass by. A big canal makes a loop and will block our way again, and the bridge we need is the main one and almost the only crossing. One way or another, we'll get to it. Besides, if you raise your head, you will see "per Rialto" signs quite often along the way. Sometimes they are just painted on the walls of houses, but still make it clear in which direction you should go.
