We had a Vaparetto pass so we could use the water bus as much as we wanted so our plan was to ride one up to Piazzale Roma where the dry land begins and then back down to our hotel to get dressed for our Opera afternoon.
These photos and the video that will follow will give you an idea of the boat traffic on a sunny Saturday.
A Water Taxi
A trash barge
This is the Venice train station above
After the train station (Ferovia stop) comes the Bus Station at Piazzale Roma where we leave the Vaparetto to sit for a while. We stayed down at the canal level rather than go up the short flight of steps to the square where all the buses pull in to unload their passengers from the airport.
There's a dramatic footbridge spanning the canal here
Soon it was time to take a Vaparetto back down the way we had come....
Alilaguna is the water bus that does the Airport runs and makes fewer stops on the Grand Canal
