When you fa in water try standing before freaking out

Train trip from Munchen to Venezia today. It was quite a peaceful day with great scenary riding through the Alps. They arent as big as the rocking, but very beautiful. Also rode through the Italian countryside which was very nice. Pretty uneventful day until we arrived in Venezia. Our hostels ould best be described as weird but quaint. We entered through a barely marke door off a small square an saw dark courtyard. we were then instructed to go up 3 flights of stairs and then entered the guesthouse. i have no idea how big the hostel is and so far we have only seen 1 other guest. it is clean and very typically venetian overlooking a courtyard and canal. Jessie an i decide to go to dinner and wander over to the docking station near our hostel. Guess who proceeds to slip and fall into the canals... After a few seconds of freaking out i realize i an stand and pull myself out and go back to change. i send jessie up to get clothes and change behind a panter as to not embarass myself in front of the owners, but of course she tells them everything. finally dried off ow, but i think my camera may be ruined (sorry mom). loving venice so far, theres something interesting down every alley and around every corner. ready to explore tomorrow. Ciao!
