Antonella welcomed us very heartily, she picked us up at the vaporetto stop of Giudecca Palanca, from where it is but a short walk to her apartment. She showed us around the apartment and told us where supermarkets, nice bars and restaurants can be found on Giudecca. She also gave us a map of Venice and told us about the most important touristic sites of Venice and how to go there. The apartment is very nice; we really enjoyed staying in a spacious apartment on Giudecca rather than in a small hotel room in the city center. It is indeed the perfect place to get the feeling that one lives amongst the 'real' Venetians.
