LURVE in Venice
LURVE in VeniceVenice. Where to start?
It is beautiful, no doubt about that. The canals were fascinating, the gondolas were cool, I loved the stripey men (and one woman) and the glass and masks were funky. But can anyone say REPETITION?? Not that I'm complaining of course, it was everything I dreamed it would be, but you wouldn't need to go back twice.
My favourite thing was getting to buy a copy of 'The Merchant of Venice' in Venice! How many people can say they've done that? Haha.
And then it was New Years.
We went to an Aussie Pub just out side of Venice and watched the countdown in the town square. Such an experience! The Italians brought their own firecrackers and so it was kind of like the Battle of the Somme (I have now come to the conclusion that if I were ever in war I don't think I'd make a very good foot soldier).
The night was a LOT of fun and one I will always remember... New Years 2011 in Venice!!
xx Lex (and farewell to Italy for 3 weeks).
