Adriatic Sea Cruising 5 (Kiet Le)

Venice, Italy
Hello again Venezia, the Queen of the Adriatic Sea!
This is our 2nd time here at this magical city and it is as crowded as ever! 
It has no roads, just canals. The Grand Canal thoroughfare is lined with Renaissance and Gothic palaces. The central place is the square Piazza San Marco with the St. Mark’s Basilica and the Campanile bell tower.
Such a romantic place!

Vaporetti (water buses) provide the primary means of transportation around Venice
