    • Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: Waterproof footware (aka Wellington boots)




    Miscellaneous: Aqua Alta typically occurs in late Autumn, but can catch you out at any time. Although it is great to watch the water lapping over the kerb, and walking on the eleveted pathways, Wet feet can take the shine off the most wonderful sights!

     Great gondola tip, I believe Venice to be very expensive now, it was many years ago I had the pleasure of visiting

     What a great visit you had. Love the photo of the Rialto Bridge. Thanks for sharing all this wonderful information with us!;-)    		deecat Sat Sep 27, 2003 23:24 UTC
     Going back can be so great. It seems it was for you. I go to Venice for the first time in a few weeks. So am gathering all the information I can. Thanks.
