I like they way you explored the city the second time, that is the way Kevin and I like to do things too. Thanks for your suggestions on the different ways to see the city and your little tip about going out in the gondolas.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-14673257099449120382015-08-19T11:56:55.868-04:002015-08-19T11:56:55.868-04:00We have been to Venice twice.

The second time we went off the main routes and walked all the back ways and had such a wonderful time. Walked where all the locals live and their laundry hanging out. A very different side of Venice. We loved the produce boats that the locals shop off of. As far as the gondola ride, go at about 7:00, you get a great tour and also have the Grand Canal to yourself. Go later and the wind has picked up and the rocking and rolling has caused the tourists to be seasick!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04340754457769990679noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-51398195723185212582015-08-19T09:59:58.626-04:002015-08-19T09:59:58.626-04:00So happy to hear that you loved Venice.

I wonder how much the prices have changed since 2006?!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-43349760382513422122015-08-19T09:52:10.816-04:002015-08-19T09:52:10.816-04:00Thank you!Thank you!Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-66622887591747538802015-08-19T09:50:05.530-04:002015-08-19T09:50:05.530-04:00You are totally right George, lots of options out ...You are totally right George, lots of options out there.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-62957744514322961012015-08-19T09:49:05.434-04:002015-08-19T09:49:05.434-04:00You may suggest the tour. :-) It sounds like an in...You may suggest the tour. :-) It sounds like an interesting one and if it is free, it is all that much better.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18136052866820208847noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7171307653508307040.post-20411436465036002152015-08-18T17:12:09.966-04:002015-08-18T17:12:09.966-04:00Carrie and I visited Italy for two weeks before sh...Carrie and I visited Italy for two weeks before she had to be in Copenhagen to do some studying.
