Here's a view of the Grand Canal
from the Rialto Bridge. To the right is a gondola station, and to
the left you can see the Vaporetto just leaving the Vaporetto stop
(yellow structures). Vaporettos are waterbuses that are the main
form of
transportation in Venice (other than walking!).

The famous Rialto Bridge (which
doubles as
a shopping center these days!)

A vendor at the outdoor fish market not far from the Rialto Bridge, and
just a few minutes walk from my hotel

Saint Mark's Square - the big attraction of Venice. During the
day the pigeons outnumber the people! To the right is the tower
called the Campanile, and straight ahead is the Basilica San
Marco.

An outdoor cafe in St. Mark's Square. The orchestra plays in the
evening.
