So it's true Venice is an island, but getting lost is always possible and part of the excitement. Rick Steves (he's great) travel book said to wander around Venice because you can't get lost, he never said it may take a few hours to find your way back to where you need to go. When my friends and I …

Early November was a great time to visit Venice.  It was very sunny for my visit and the rains had not started yet.  Although the air was pretty cool, it made it very comfortable to walk around the city.  Plus all the crowds were all gone, which made walking …

I am willing to dispense free photography advice to all who will listen. So, as a self-acknowledged expert, I will let you in on how to look cooler to your friends by taking stunning photos.I look at every day in the proverbial blocks on a schedule (of sorts). I start by planning the day loosely, w…

Venezia- second part of my Italian adventure. I said Bologna was a shock for me? OH NO! I heard so many bad things about that place...bad smell, lot of tourists(well about tourists its right)but don't u dare telling me there is no charm in Venezia.

My dream to visit Italy finally came ture ! What a wonderful country !!!

In the summer of 2008 I went to Rimini and Venice with a friend.

The last excursion day of this week. Today we'll visit Venice. At 7.30 AM we leave the hotel and go to Venice. The last part of the trip we have to go with a boat, because Venice is an island with no vehicles allowed. After arriving with the boat we start with the guide and the earphones at a bri…

I traveled to Venice last year, May 2005. It was ultra hot, already, even in May. The groups of tourists (me included) were almost unbearable. None the less, it was a great & memorable vacation/experience. Venice is a beautiful city. I hope that everyone gets the chance to visit & experience this enchanting city.

I would compare the visit to the Biennale to the most  amazing travel embracing  the best of the five continents and involving all senses and emotions. Here I have included some photos taken at the Art Exhibition and at the Festival of Contemporary Music  and some questions -…

Venice began with an evening meal at a wonderful restaurant in Venice.  We took our bus from the hotel to where we could we water-taxied out onto the island.  Naturally the dinner was delicious and of course was fish.  What else would you eat in Venice. Good wine, good music, and goo…

I just got the photos from my other friend Leslie (yes, 4 mos later) and had to update.  Much better photos of me and the evil little chihuaha that attacked me.  But the bar we stumbled upon was so cute.  I think that is one of my favorite things about Venice, the little bars that ar…

Oh Venice! City of lights, culture, gondellas, canals and during carnivale...crazy people in wild costumes. You can feel the energy of Venice during carnivale. A mask can hide the truth and remove the inhibitions. Here are some of the 1200 pictures we took during our trip in Feb. 2009. Hope they make you smile. Enjoy!!!

(cont'd...) The beauty of Venice has been visually immortalized numerous times - as far as I've become aware of, in travel magazines, TV shows, and even from any delightful souvenirs everywhere. The evoking image of Grand Canal with the Salute Church as backdrop; gondolas glidin…

Our next adventure took us on a three hour bus ride to Venice. Originally, we were scheduled to take the train, but there was a planned transportation strike making the that a no go. The ride was quite beautiful as we travelled through the Apennine Mountains.The motor coach took us as far as it cou…
