The City ON the Water

My second time in Venezia... one of my favorite cities in Italy. Somehow, I forgot to write about the last time I was in Venice. Me and my 3 roommates went to Venice in September, it was so crowded and hot, but so so so beautiful. I went during the time of the Biannale, a huge art show that the world does every 2 years. Each country has a pavilion and artists to represent their country. It was an incredible experience so I returned again with my mom before the Biannale ends. We had a great time; gondola rides, a strange British play, amazing dinners, art and walking the canals of Venice. Our hotel was perfect, so Venetian and it was in the perfect location right near St.Mark's square. Since we were in Venice at a less busy time of year, we got a great deal for such an awesome place :) It was cold here in November, just like everywhere else in Italy though. There was more fog in the evenings, but it was beautiful to see Venice by night... It is a great city, unlike any other.

Possibly my favorite thing I have eaten. Ever.


St. Mark's Cathedral.
