VENICE

Venice was our next stop and our favorite place in Italy. The city is completely void of cars, so it was very easy to walk everywhere without worrying about being run over. You will have to ask Janna for any details on the sites as all the old building start looking the same to me after awhile. That doesn't mean that the architecture wasn't just amazing. I have no idea how they built such amazing building so long ago. But, I am usually more interested in the little details of people lives in these different places.


One of the these details that I noticed was how the lack of cars doesn't stop UPS. Check out the logo on the rudder of the blue boat. Almost every movie people see of Venice has a shot of Saint Marks Square and all the pigeons. There where vendors selling corn to feed the pigeons and they definitely weren't afraid of people. The funny thing was that we saw almost no pigeons anywhere else in the city. They obviously have figured out where it food is at.



And of course I have to mention the food. I am drooling again just thinking about the pizza. It was everywhere, it was cheap, and I ate a shit load.
