The Grand Canal | From Accademia Bridge 10/01 |
Someday I will redo my Venice pages. I got bored with them and blew 'em away a couple of years ago, but I started missing Venice & thinking about how pretty it was......
Venice has been done-to-death on VT and everywhere else, so this time I am posting as few std pix (rialto, etc.) as possible. There are lots of better Venice pages & pix if you look for them.
But (above) .. here's one:

Piazza San Marco(Left) < The obligatory San Marco Square shot.
I liked Venice very much, it is beautiful, unique and so very romantic, but it is so crowded, touristed, and overpriced.
I recommend it once, then it's up to you if you want to return.
I probably will someday, as there really is no city like it.
