Italy 2026, Day 6

The morning started with someone else getting up before dawn to go get THE shot of Venice, it was not me.

The rest of us waited much longer before waking up to take a leisurely stroll over to the Venice market. I don’t know what was going on with their lights but my camera hated whatever it was. I still managed to get a few shots.

We call it an Italian plum back home and I was pretty much missing their season on this trip. So happy to find one!

We did grab a nice breakfast by the market.

Pancakes, eggs and prosciutto.

Then we just wandered around for the day.

24 hour clock that still works.

Water was a little high this morning.

Someone had a photo shoot this morning.

My favorite book shop.

A little light refreshment to cool down.

After a moderate afternoon rest we headed out for an early dinner.

Penne al Pesto

Gnocchi with a salmon sauce? I’m still unsure here the salmon was.

Penne all’ Amatriciana

Despite cooler weather it was still pretty hot today, especially in the sun. Still, the sky was amazing with vivid blue skies. We had some great breezes along the waterfronts and down some of the streets.

We have also walked around 8 miles each day for the last two days. One more day of walking and we’ll all be happy to sit on a plane for a while!
