We settled ourselves into our B & B at the eastern end of Cannaregio this evening. Our B & B is on a quiet residential street, not only close to the water bus stop, but near one of my favorite churches in Venice, Il Gesuiti. The accommodations are perfect, but it's only a 4 room B & B, with no real amenities. Michael wanted to purchase a few things for snacks and drinks. So we found a tourist map and set out to find a mercato that was still open - not too late, it's 8 PM.

We found a great little market with all that we needed after crossing a few rios and bridges. We selected peaches and a melon, buffalo mozzarella, noci (hazelnuts) and some bottled water. I was able to speak well in Italian - glad my studying has helped me brush up, even if it's only at a 4 year old level of speaking.

| We considered stopping in here at the bar for an espresso to cap off the night, but I was afraid it might not help with the need for catching up on sleep. There's always tomorrow. |

| Wonderful looking local trattoria, with many patrons for a Monday night. |

| Buonanotte Venezia! |
