I made it to Venice safely on the Trenitialia late in the evening on the 6th, leaving from Rome Termini. My first impressions of the city were not great - the train station was a mess, the ferry service to my accommodation a few stops away was to cost me €7, and there was no one around at all! But as soon as I made it into the centre, that all changed. I've never seen any place remotely like it (apart from in a Las Vegas Casino).. The city was simply stunning. The only thing that let me down was a lack of cheap Italian food around the place.
I don't have a huge amount of time to write much sorry. Since the 8th I've flown home to London, then arrived back in Norwich to say my goodbyes.
Back to London tomorrow for a sad night preparing to pack all of Sunday. Then leaving UK for good on Monday morning...

| Disappointing pasta to be quite honest.. |

| A Mussolini, fascist-inspired, train station in Venice. |

| Off home to London and Norwich to say my goodbyes. |
