  • Piazza San Marco is one of the most magnificent squares in Italy....the only downside is the huge number of pigeons here!!

    Tourists are the ones that feed them....and let these rats with wings climb all over them....eeeuuuuwwww!!

    Be warned, when you visit the Piazza you are in grave danger of being pooed on by a pigeon....one may even land on you if you are really lucky...not.

    They especially like people with bald heads!

    Please don't feed them....the pigeons I mean!

     Excellent page and tips on Venice! Brunello at Quadri...I like how you roll! Seriously, how is this not a Top 5 page? Definitely deserves to be!

     Lovely page about a lovely city. Great photos of the bridges and San Marco, really useful tips (like the look of your B&B) and as ever, restaurant tips that made my mouth water :)
