This place is simply amazing. It was the seat of the Council of 10 (CX) which looked after the political and financial affairs of Venice.
At one time Venice was the richest city state in the worldLes mer

Went for a gondola ride - really peaceful just drifting around the canals and because it is winter there are not too many people around so the canals weren't like rush hour on the Southern Motorway.

This place is 2773 years old but partially rebuilt in the 1800s. As you can tell from the age it is only slightly older than some of our family members although we can't make them fight with swordsLes mer

Arrived in Rome on a clear but cold day. Awesome city and our hotel is minutes walk from Trevi Fountain and Spanish Steps. Streets are cobbled and full of people.
