Nice photo, Hive account@simoait. Thanks for posting it.

So you were just a visitor or you live there? I went on holiday to a nearby town, Lido di Jesolo as a school kid back in '85. It was an amazing time and we had the choice of a trip to Venice, a trip to the Venetian islands and a trip to the deepest cavern in Europe in what was Yugoslovia (Ljubljana, now Slovenia). We had a choice of two. We declined the islands - which was the way I voted, I just assumed they'd be similar to Venice itself so why would you want to spend a day seeing them as well?

Have you been to the islands?

I thought the Rialto bridge was great (bought a tacky plastic gondola for the mother but didn't actually ride on a real one). St. Mark's square was cool. Only went in one building, but the one I did, I looked up and the ceiling was full of gold. It looked amazing.

Would love to go back. Hope you had a great time there (if you were just passing through).
