  • Go on, if you see a small, a very small side "street", take it go and see where it leads. These are the places where you can sometimes find the real Venice. Places where tourists "fear to tread", places that are not listed in those expensive tour books because they are not fancy or duded up or cost a fortune to purchase a ticket...

  • So what is Venice famous for if not its watery streets. They are both the main "roads" and also the back alleys of Venice. Here you get a glimpse of a single person speeding away with his boat and hoping nobody comes around the corner without looking first.

  • So now that I have suckered you into this, expecting me to tell you all the numerous reasons NOT to take your kids on your trips with you, I will tell you that you ALWAYS should take them. They will learn more about tolerance and acceptance of others than any shcool can teach them. And then there is the best part for you as a parent, and that is seeing as smile like this...
    NO, I did not mean the smile on the fat pigeon, I meant the smile on my daughters face....

     YES! Always take your children along during your travels. I do agree! Only for the education of other cultures and languages is one reason to do so. The smile on their faces is another. A site well done!
