For the last day of our trip, we drove from Rome to Venice. It was about a 4-5 hour drive, I can't even remember for sure now. LOL But anyway, we got to Venice and it was cold and rainy! Nothing like it had been in Pisa or Rome! So we had packed long sleeved shirts and coats, so I changed the boys and we started walking to the main part of the city. It was SO beautiful there! There was only one problem, they had bridges everywhere for people to cross the waters (walking) from place to place. Well, on every single bridge, it was all steps. Now, keep in mind we both had a stroller!(didn't bring the sit n stand because we both just wanted to have a stroller for the little shops and narrow spaces, it's just easier that way here in Europe) LOL We had to start out with this massive step bridge, just to get across to the main part of the city! But we made it work!
We crossed SOOO many bridges as we were walking but Caleb would just get out of his stroller and walk up the steps, and Darryl would hold the light umbrella stroller up, while he helped me pick up mine with Ay in it. It was an experience! Haha. But we thoroughly enjoyed it. It was so peaceful there, and just sooo gorgeous.
My favorite kind of place! The most awesome part of Venice was riding a gondola!! 
IT was amazing. I told Darryl it could have been a potentially romantic situation, but we had a kid on each of our laps jabbering away! Hahaha. But it was an awesome family moment, and we wouldn't have had it any other way. 
We even saw the house where Marco Polo lived at one point! That was pretty cool. The shops there had really good pizza and awesome gelato too!

We got back to the car, and headed home around 7pm. We love to trave at night because the boys sleep the entire time and it's super peaceful. :)
They were worn out too! As you can see! And Caleb's face was dirty as ever, LOL. But anyway, we had an awesome trip all-around, and made it home around 2 in the morning!
