2019-06-26 Leaving Venice, drive to Zermatt

Went for a last run around Venice and snapped some pics. Checked out of our Airbnb, hopped the water bus to the rental car office, got our car. After a game of suitcase-tetris trying to fit everything in the tiny trunk, we hit the road.

The drive was scenic but HOT. Inland, Italy got up to almost 40 degrees and the car's air conditioner could barely keep up.

We arrived in Tasch, parked the car, then caught the train to Zermatt (no cars allowed here). Five minute walk to our AirBnb here which is *beautiful*!

Evening time we went out to dinner and did a little walk around town.


Gondola repair shop I spotted on my morning run.
