Journal Entry:
Got off the train in Venice. Met Sof (a friend I met in Denmark) at the train station. Spent the day seeing Venice (the island of Burano was my favorite).

The crowds (imagine it in August!) conviced me to head for Florence. Once in Florence, checked into the first reasonable pension found.
