Sunday in Venice

Bright, sunny, not-too-warm Venice redeemed itself today, after a miserably wet and soggy Saturday. I spent quality time in St. Mark's by attending two Masses. The guards were tolerant of picture-takers after the Masses, and I got some great impressions of the church in action. To really appreciate a church you have to experience it as a place of worship, not a museum. Will reflect on it more, but not tonight -- am tired and need a good night's sleep. Train to Ravenna tomorrow.
