I'm referring to the Venice Blue Card, which allows unlimited use of the vaporetto's, but it's not free. When we get the 3 day Blue Venice Cards, it is good for 72 hours from the initial time stamp. Once the girl in the booth wrote the time on the pass to make sure it was not extended by "forgetting" to validate it. Also yes that all vaporetto lines to Lido, Murano, etc. are inluded with the unlimited use.

I think he means does the vaporetto come with the card. Yes it does, it is different from the standard vap ticket, and some are good for 7 days. Seemed standard for the time to be hand written, not stamped. Ours was so badly written, no one could read it.
