Lost in Venice.....

Day 1 in Venice, after a 6 hour scenic Train ride, we arrive in Venice.....We get a vaporetto card (water bus travel card), my tour guide Paul (researched this) it gives you unlimited water bus travelling, for the time you request. So with some money changed & our vaporitto cards we are ready for Venice. We get off & need to find the hotel, this is so stressful for Paul as he has to be in control & know exactly where to go etc etc. So as the stress & cold started to set in, he walked into a shop & got directions. Then after 5 mins & some swearing he goes into another store & gets directions.... Bear in mind we have all our luggage in tow up & down foot bridges. So we wonder the streets of Venice for about 10 more minutes & yep, Paul goes into another shop & ask for directions. By this time we are both freezing & desperate to get into our hotel, we finally find it!!! Yay!!! I do have to say its a very nice & pleasant ending to a long day....
