We are in Venice !!

Bused it back to the station early morning. Great to see the bus
schedule at the bus stop update live on an LED screen as to when the
next bus would be arriving.
We hopped on the train and ran into two really nice Italian gentlemen
and chatted it up with them for the whole 2 hours. They told us about
their travels in Italy and it opened up a whole bunch of other places
to visit on a return trip. As we were arriving in Venice the
Controller arrived and when he stamped our ticket informed us we were
in 1st Class, but he was alright with it and didn't force us to move.
Comfy train ride though ;)
