Day 7: St. Mark’s Basilica & Vaporetta Ride

We started the day by eating at La Lista where I ordered a caffe americano and vegetarian omelette. T ordered pancakes with fruit and a caffee o’dorzo with ginseing. After breakfast, we perused the shopping strips in search of the perfect sourvineers. I knew I wanted something small since I didn’t have a lot of exta space in my carry on, and found a couple pairs of Murano glass earrings. One day, if we go back, I would love to visit either Murano or Burano and see the glass makers making glass.

We stopped at a pastry shop where we ate pistachio bread and something that tasted like a strawberry lemonade cookie. We walked to St. Mark’s and got a little lost along the way, but nothing like the night before.
