Subject: RE: BS: Who's been to Venice?
I think the music will come to you. I ended up in Venice on early Christmas morning, quite by accident, once. Was planning to be somewhere else but train schedules didn't work. So there I was..train station at about 4 a.m. All the porters etc. were singing. Then I had the miracle of the bathroom but that is another story. Then I just wandered around the station, and then I went outside..I had absolutely no idea it was right on the main canal....and as it got a little later people started to be out and about and I swear they were all singing...crossing the bridges, going to the various churches I guess. It was quite beautiful. Had some food in the train station, took the water bus here and there and had a great day. mg
