Tuesday 21 October... Day 2 in Venice..

On our second day we were up and out.. streets are much quieter in the early part of the morning.  Still a cloudy day, but the fog of yesterday had lifted a bit..




















The Santa Maria Goriosa ei Frari... not photos permitted of the interior.



And on the right, is the San Rocco church - which houses many marvellous Tintorettos...

The Scuola Grande di San Rocco















Sana Maria della Salute.. which we visited late in the week..












We had lunch beside the canal and house sparrows joined us ..











and then a visit to the amazing La Fenice (the opera house)






The Royal Box..










and of course, we had to have a coffee in the opera house... :)









Another really good day and the following day a visit to some islands is planned...  :)
