Amazing carved door handles like this (often in form of human or animal heads) were everywhere. I thought I'd taken pictures of several more examples, but either they didn't come out or I've inadvertently deleted them.
View from the gondola.
Grab a bottle of prosecco before you go to enjoy during the ride!
I love Venice....and I was only thinking last night how I would like to take a little trip there next winter.....hope so!
ReplyDeleteGod, how gorgeous!!
ReplyDeleteSigh! I need to go back there. It's been a long time.
ReplyDeleteOh, so lovely! You've been very influential in pushing Venice to the top of my travel musts . . .
ReplyDeleteI miss Venice so much. You're inspiring me to go back through my photos of our 2005 trip.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous slice of Venice. I have adopted the Spritz as my screensaver; hope that' OK. Cin-cin!
ReplyDeleteCool pictures! What's in a Spritz? Looks like Campari.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous! A friend of ours is there now - I should ask her to take some doorknob pictures for you!
ReplyDeleteSuch a beautiful spot to holiday.
ReplyDeleteThe Spritz looks delicious too!
Lovely... I'm glad you posted some more vacation photos!!
ReplyDeleteGorgeous.
ReplyDeleteEver since I saw the 1950s film "Summertime" with Katherine Hepburn, I've wanted to visit Venice.
I realize it's changed (obviously), and yet, your photos remind me how much I still want to see it.
Just found your gorgeous blog all the way from Spain (altho' I am British!). Love the photos of Venice.
ReplyDeleteFollowing up on my earlier comment - I just learned that My Son is there!! He went down from London to visit our friend. I'm so jealous.
ReplyDeleteahhh, a spritz! the perfect way to start the night out. :) or in... either works for me. :)
ReplyDeleteHow utterly fabulous!
