Vacation Day 16: Tuesday, Travel by train to Venezia and return to Verona.

We drove from the Holiday Inn to the FFS Stazione and parked our car. We caught an ICE train to Venezia and   arrived around noon. We did the tourist thing and saw Venezia from the Vaporetti and by foot.  We left Venezia around 1800 and had a nice dinner in downtown Verona. We saw the old Roman area and the Roman Arena.
