Venice: City of Waterways.........and overpriced gondolas
So, our 3rd city on our Tour de Italia was Venice. It was so different and so beautiful! Everything really is on the water, even the tons of taxis and the main public transportation. These pictures are of various things. One is of the main waterway of Venice at sunset. Another is of the gondolas waiting to rob people of 70 euro. Then we have the infamous Rialto bridge. Also, there is St. Mark's Square. There are a billion pigeons here, and people buy birdseed so they can get pics of themselves covered in pigeons. I just loved shuffling behind them (the pigeons). They don't like to fly unless absolutely necessary, so it's hilarious to shuffle really quickly behind them (Mocko, very similar to your penguin walk) and watch them scurry along. (Don't worry, I'll imitate it for you all when I get home.) And these birds make direct flights toward your heads. No fear. Finally, the last pic is of me on some random bridge.
