Duna Verde to Venice 46 miles, about 38 cycling, ( total miles 608)

We had a great ride today with an excellent tail wind from our campsite, along the Lido Di Jesolo following the canals to Punta Sabbioni.  This included crossing a privately owned toll bridge although it seemed to be free to cyclists.

We then had to negotiate ferries to the Lido Di Venezia and then to the mainland at Tronchetto. The guy in white in the photo below is very carefully guarding his carbon Bianchi road bike from the fleet of hire bikes from one of the cruise ships in Venice 

The ferry takes you right past St Marks square and some of the superyauchts moored nearby. If you look at the back of the boat you can see some crew members to give some sense of scale.

Once off the ferry we were slightly navigationally challenged finding our way across the causeway and to our hotel in Mestre.  

It is a bit of a strange feeling tonight, that is our journey virtually completed and we both feel it would be great to just keep going to somewhere else.  However tomorrow we will do some sightseeing amongst the Islands before heading for the airport on Sunday.  It has been another great trip and we are already asking the usual question......where next?
