Auto Posted October 31, 2018 Report Share Posted October 31, 2018 Soooo...apparently Venice is 70% flooded right now. Getting kinda bummed about the prospect of not being able to go into the city Friday afternoon after we arrive for our Saturday sail away. Hopefully this doesn't affect the cruise port or our timing on Saturday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best I can tell, it won't affect us staying on the mainland tomorrow night, or our transfer to the port Saturday. It is just a bummer because we had planned to go into the city proper tomorrow afternoon to track down some of the best pizza and gelato we've ever had, which we found on our spring break trip to Venice this year. I joked with my wife that instead of sailing past St Mark's Square, we could probably sail right through it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
