Sunday, church day 280914

I'm tired today, went to church and think that both cursed me and exhausted me.

Got half way to San Marco where I get the vaporetto from and went to take a photo but couldn't because I had left the memory stick thing in my room so had to come back and get that.  Got it, got the ferry for San Giorgio which is an island just off San Marco and the only thing on the island is the church but it has a magnificent view of San Giorgio (so if George Clooney is smart that's where he will get married).  Anyway, hold on to your britches, I went to mass this morning at San Giorgio (St. George's) but left once they started handing around the grog.  I'm not in to sharing glasses with other people.  Then I got the fricken wrong vaporetto back to the train station where the phone company is because my internet was going slow so it was running out and shitting me, it was due for renewal Tuesday but I paid a whole five euro for another month's worth.  I will only need two weeks so was going to go sick on my internet usage now but I just got an sms saying I had 65% left from what I added today and then another sms reminding me that my monthly plan needs to be renewed on Thursday!  I am not going to be here for another month but its ten euro so I will just pay it.  If I find myself near the station tomorrow or Tuesday I will go back in to the store and figure out what is going on.  Today there was a guy there and here was serving another woman at the same time which was a worry - male multi-tasking.  There is usually a very helpful lady there so I will just see what happens.  Anyway, back to today, from the station I was going to get a vaporetto back to San Marco because my phone was going flat and it has a gps on it that shows me where I am that is ten zillions times better than trying to read a map but missed the vaporetto and had to wait a whole ten minutes for the next one, so walked back to Academia which is two stops away from where I wanted to be, ate a piece of pizza for lunch on the way on some little bridge somewhere, then got the vaporetto back to San Marco and walked back to my room where I am absolutely stuffed.  I'm not doing anything this afternoon (it's 5pm now anyway) or tonight, not even going to go for a stroll through San Marco like I have been.

I'll have a look on my list of things I wanted to see and do here and find something to do tomorrow.  My time here in Venezia is running out quickly, I'm glad I changed my plans and stayed here a few days longer.
