Me, Mum and Grace decided to have a wonder along the river - that was a bad choice. It was freezing, and very windy. However we did come across the Roller Bladeing Championships which was interesting. It must have been cold as a spectator! Back in the old town where the buildings provided shelter from the wind it began to pour with rain. We were near the art school so I said why don’t we get a drink from a cafe I know down the road. The cafe is right across he road from St Marks Square where there was a gigantic market going on so we decided to have a look. There were fruit, veg, meat, fish, ready to eat dished, clothes, antiques, furniture - everything really. Grace bought a pretty spot dress. We soon decided we needed a hot drink so eventually got to the cafe to warm up. On the way home we bumped into Mary’s parents again (they were going to Flunch) and then stopped at the Patisserie and picked up some pastries to try. Because it was so cold and wet we stayed inside for the rest of the afternoon, doing the decoupage in my room and watching a film in french at the hotel. It was snowing by this point! At about 8 we went to find somewhere to eat. There wasn’t much choice because it was a sunday, and even restaurants don’t open. After a little wander we went back to the Tarte Tatin (open 7 days a week) and guess who was there too ... Mary and parents. We were even seated at the table next to them. After another delicious meal. we went back to the hotel and watched Mean Girls in french, then I walked home in a snow storm!
