venice

Off to Venice....We were here a day early waiting for Wendy and Bob because Italy air controllers and Air France decided to go on strike. That didn't ruin a good time, it only meant we cut out going to Florence.

My pictures loaded from last to first so you will have to bear with me. Here we are our last day walking around and I found this interesting.  They bring in all the food on the canal and then it suddenly becomes the market.

The garbage boat going down collecting as it goes. But where does it go?

vegtables being sold along the canal

masks seem to be a big part of Venice. Wendy bought some for her grandchildren.
I have boys so that won't do for them..

Glass blowers. This is for Brent who loves his elephants.

We are going down the canal and being sung to as we go. It is quiet exciting!

Things don't getting any better being with this lady :)

Buildings are beautiful. we are in the square.

we climbed to top of this tower. great view.

Water taxis move us around from the airport to the hotel.This is the bigger main canal.

We say goodbye to a fascination city.
Ciao :)
