Italy Pictures #1- Venice Addition

The posting of Italy pictures shall finally begin!
We apologize for the delay...we have been picture sifting & sorting.
We had a wonderful trip and are so grateful
we were able to take the time away together.
We ended our trip in Venice...but will start the vacation picture review with it...
in front of St. Mark's Cathedral

St. Mark's Square...full of pigeons and people

The Doge's Palace

the inner court of the Doge's Palace

The Bridge of Sighs
the bridge from the Doge's Palace/Courts to the prison,
offering those convicted one last look out at the city

Rialto Bridge

Two Classic Venice sites: a gondolier and a small connecting bridge

The Grand Canal can become very crowded

Views down the canal- with lots of water and boats!

Mansions along the grand canal

Did being on the canals make you want to jump in a speedboat and reenact the high-speed boat chase from The Italian Job?!?!?

Just curious...
