Italy! April 16 Saturday - Dinner and Nighttime Stroll in Venice

We decided to have dinner at a restaurant down the street, Osteria Ai 40 Ladroni, which we found through Yelp reviews. A favorite with the locals, far removed from the main touristy attractions, Osteria clearly accommodates its regulars, as they set up a small table for a friendly patron right next to us when the rest of the restaurant was full. We enjoyed a seafood platter, where the fish was deboned right before us, as well as a grilled vegetable plate. We also ordered our half liter of wine. A walk through St. Mark's Square with music playing about, a sighting of the Bridge of Sighs, and shopping for glass trinkets ended our whirlwind one-night magical stay in Venice.
