Driving to Venice in a smaller bus, we arrived around 11 and made our
way to our hotel, Hotel Pesaro Palace, www.hotelpesaropalace.it, by
vaperetto. We had no problem getting there and the stop is exactly at
the front door. We were kidding a couple of days ago about the picture
on the website being our room, and alas it was! It was like a suite with our own outside sitting area, lots of Murano chandeliers, a gorgeous
bathroom, and beautiful bedroom, gorgeous drapes, lots of windows, big
mirrored closet with safe, TV, WIFI, refrigerator, minibar that wasn't
very mini, tray ceiling, coco brown cloth padded walls, and you think
I'm carrying on, I could go on a lot longer! It is a 4 Star Hotel right
on the grand canal.
After checking in we went to St. Mark's
Square in the day and later at dusk, we went to Harry's Bar to meet
friends who weren't there, then ate nearby, had a carafe of wine, a
delicious pizza, then ordered pork medallions with mushrooms. We took
the early evening water bus to see the palatzos with their lights,
chandeliers, muraled ceilings, etc. After breakfast, we plan to hit
the Academia and the Guggenheim.
