Hey Cougar Nation!

Today we visited Venice, Italy. Our tour guide showed us a beautiful church that is made of gold. Inside was quite a sight to see, with all the sculptures and mosaic art pieces covering the insides which told a story about the history of Venice, Italy during the Biblical days. We also got to visit Vecchia Murano which is a glass factory that made a lot of impressive pieces and we got to witness one being made. 

One of my favorite things we got to do other than of course play a game was enjoy a few boat rides. Venice, Italy was one of the few places I personally always wanted to visit. You can say it was "on the bucket list". Venice is known for boat travelling considering this city is surrounded by a lagoon, so it was fun to experience that. 

The food was also great. Some of guys and I ate at a great restaurant that was making incredible food which made the experience that much more great! Hopefully this last city is just as great in Como, Italy.

Thanks Cougar nation!
