Saturday at the Opera

Instead of looking at art, we went looking for shoes to replace our sodden footwear after

Friday’s downpour. Didn’t find anything we wanted but Sid bought a souvenir of Murano glass.
Our main activity was to go to Teatro La Fenice to see La Boheme:F364C28F-E9A7-419B-9461-1ED8D57C28A0_1_105_c

The opera house was renovated about 10 years ago, after a fire.  Looks pretty good:

After, we looked at Piazza San Marco when it wasn’t raining:

Our last dinner in Venice–and Italy–was at Quadri which over looks San Marco:
