Luggage And Bags: -Pack light you`ll have to carry your Bag/Case over long stairs, bridges & small streets!
Clothing/Shoes/Weather Gear: WINTER IN VENICE
-Layer your clothes! The Sunshine is very warm & intense (even in January!) so if you sit in the sun you`ll get warm but as soon as you enter one of the shadowy little streets it gets very cold!
-Daytime & sun: light trousers/dress/skirt & 2 light Pullovers over each other (to take one off)
-After dark: WINTERCOAT! It`ll be cold & moist (remember you`re directly by the sea!) SCARF! GLOVES!
-Make sure your shoes are comfortable & can get wet (in theory, must not happen!)
-High Heels are possible Ladies! It`s not as bad as it`s often said here: you`ll walk a lot but the sidewalks are ok - you just need balance in your shoes to climb stairs and into many shaking boats!
Toiletries & Medical Supplies: -Everything you need in a european city
-Sun protection! Yes, even in Winter! Yay!
Photo Equipment: -LOTS of films / storage on your Digi-Cam: the entire city is worth to be photographed!
-Make sure you know how to handle your own camera ;) The intense changes of light (bright sun / shadow) CAN be challanging ;) (You`ll see lots of Tourists wasting precious time to battling their own Camera!)
Miscellaneous: -SUNGLASSES! The sunshine is very intense & warm! Even in Winter!!!
-No need for Rainboots! We were lucky to have no high-water but we were told that even IF it comes it`s only on Marcus Square and wooden plates are build up that you can walk over.
