Our official tour of Venice started at San Marco Basilica. Golden mosaics throughout, marble mosaics on the floor in intricate patterns. Alas, no photos allowed. We plan to return to go through at our leisure, rather on the tour schedule.
Our guide brought us through small, little traveled streets and campos to where Marco Polo lived. Our final stop-the Rialto Bridge. Even though we were there yesterday, we explored the fruit and vegetable markets again. This time they were open.
We keep popping into various exhibits connected to the Venice Biennale. One of them was a huge mosaic of decorated eggs in the Ukrainian exhibit displayed in a church we happened by.
