The hotel we stayed at was right on one of the canels
but the courtyard...
would never lead you to believe it.
The streets were picturesque
and the shops interesting.
But Venice is all about the water.
(and tourists)
Take a picture of me! (must be Taiwanese)
The canels truely sustain daily life in Venice.
the bus stop
mail truck
police (giving out tickets)
taxi
delivery truck
supply truck
lumber truck
freeways
and traffic jambs.
Even to cross the "street"
you needed a boy scout with a gondola.
Like the rest of Italy...
beauty was everywhere
and artists...
tried to capture it.
Some art just seemed to happen.
We were lucky just to be there.
A most unforgettable trip...
for which we are extremely grateful.

I just found your blog through Tyler and Lindsey's blog. It was fun seeing the pictures of Venice, I recognized so much of it from when Brent and I went in June 2007. That is so great that you guys got to go there, Venice is one-of-a-kind, that is for sure.
I don't know if you will see this comment, but if you do...you should post some pictures from Spain!
Thanks for sharing your wonderful adventures. You're going to love Peru! What a great opportunity for you. Keep us posted...........
