Venice, I had visited before and many years ago I was also there for the Carnival. This time the one that fascinated me was Burano with its little houses one after the other, painted in bright colors that on a day of so much sun makes them very pretty and puts you in a good mood

We did "skip the line" tickets for St Mark's Basilica and the Doges Palace in Venice. All very quick, efficient and easy and saving us lots of time.

I would have given "Awesome" as our trip to The Doges Palace was indeed that but we were less impressed by St Mark's Basilica.
