Warnings Or Dangers: Venice: Strollers
  • Tip Rating:
  • If you have young children, consider bringing a backpack type device for carrying them, as strollers are a bad idea. There are so many bridges with steps that you will soon be tired of having to lift the stroller EVERY time you come up to one. If you are traveling alone with a child in a stroller, even worse, as you won't have help lugging it up and down every bridge (there are dozens!). Not all bridges are as big as the one pictured, but you'll come to a new bridge every couple minutes or so.

    Pigeons: Feeding the pigeons
  • Tip Rating:
  • Everybody knows about the pigeons in St. Mark's Square, and some criticize those who buy the seed to feed them, saying it only causes the problem of birds to worsen. What people don't know is that the problem of too many birds has gotten a lot better than they once were. The seed sold at the stands actually contains birth control that helps control the over-population of pigeons. You can purchase a bad of seed for 1 Euro. Be aware that feeding the pigeons anything other than the seed purchased is illegal and you can be fined if caught.

     Hi Cindy, hope you are having a nice birthday. Good Venice warnings. I used to work in Venice when I was a student - very happy memories :-)

     We spent a day in Venice while on honeymoon in Lago di Garda. It was lovely. I will return here one day.
