Venice to Rome
Another good breakfast of "empty" croissants, nutella and salami sandwiches and then off to the train station on the water bus. The water bus is not as romantic as it sounds - they are slow, noisy and crowded. But we got the station in plenty of time to get our Eurostar to Rome, with stops in Bologna and Firenze. Termini station in Rome is nuts, but manageable. Lucky for us the weather is nice today, because the hotel website says to get off at the Vatican Museums metro stop, but then gives directions to the hotel from the next metro stop over (and closer to the hotel). We ended up buying a map, and it ended up being an easy walk...but still...
