After Murano we headed back to the main island, and took a gondola tour. This was another special Venetian treat, poling through tiny canals and seeing strange and interesting vistas and historic buildings. It was getting dark (night falls at about 4.30pm here already), so the photos weren't great, but the experience was pretty cool.
One disappointment was the Bridge of Sighs swathed in construction works, so it looked rather odd.
After the tour, we grabbed a bite to eat at a restaurant (pizza for the kids, again), and then caught the water bus to Marco Polo airport, and taxi to the hotel where we stayed the first night. This time we asked for a room with two beds, and got a junior suite, which the kids loved as it included a big double bed on a mezzanine floor, which they claimed. Meant I got a very good night's sleep on my own!
