Venice (Day 2)

Day 2 started early.. we got up in time to see the morning deliveries arriving at the local shops. SInce there are no cars here, it makes sense that everything is done by boat. We actually saw a UPS boat!
Recognize this church fellow nerds? It should if you've seen Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade.. It's the "Library" where he found the clues to find his father. It's actually the Church of San Barnaba.

Headed down the the Ponte de l'Acadamia. It is one of only four bridges in Venice, to span the Grand Canal. It crosses near the southern end of the canal, and is named for the Accademia galleries. The bridge links the sestiere of Dorsoduro and San Marco.

Me on the Ponte de l'Acadamia...

We headed over into St. Mar's Square again to play with the pigeons... 
Terry likes this WAY TOO much!

So, it floods here, a lot! We just happened to be here on one of the days that it did!
