On Dec 29th, the Stewarts shot 5251 free throws and made 3002 of them in an effort to raise money for "Hands at Work." Thanks to the generous donations of "celebrity" participants and supporters, over 625 GBP (~$1000) was raised for the organization that encourages and supports local communities in Africa, visits sick patients in their home, and plays with orphaned children.

The weather cleared for a while in the afternoon and we finally enjoyed a ride through San Marcos and in the Grand Canal
On our first day we thought the "tables" stacked along the alley ways and in St Mark's Square were left over from a special occasion. We realized the next day, while it was still raining, that they're used to form a path over flooded areas!

To avoid some of the rain, we travelled by boat to Murano and spent a couple hours watching them make glass (see the furnace) and taking the obligatory tour through the shop
We arrived in Venice on Oct 24, 2011 and departed on the evening of Oct 27th. We endured a light rain for all but the last day, however, on the positive side, there were far fewer tourists than in the summer. We stayed on San Marcos and visited St Mark's Square on the first day (above).Saturday, January 7, 2012
