Venice was all floating fabulousness!
It felt like I was just getting to know the city, when it was time for me to leave. “What will you do there for an entire week? And alone?” my friends exclaimed before I left. I could easily have stayed another two.
I walked mostly. Through endless narrow calles, over innumerable pontes and onto picturesque campos presided over by stunning churches filled with unbelievable art. The clanging of bells from their companiles marking the time of day.
And when my poor feet could take no more, I hopped onto a Vaporetto for the long ride back ‘home’.
Here is a shot clicked from one such ride back…

And a few of my gondola shots;
More soon. Have a great weekend.
Wonderful Venice photos Madhu – such beautiful colours. To make you feel better after Bologna, my trip to Venice coincided with the rains and the acqua alta so my pics aren’t nearly so vivid.
Enjoying my revisit, love your photos. Showed them to my boy who learned about Venice in an audio about Vivaldi when he was 4.5 yrs old. Thanks again for adding to the discussion in the Race Around the World.
