Our Gondola ride on the Grand Canal
The Rialto is one of only
three bridges that cross the Grand Canal,
and it was the first one built
Ivano was our Gondalier...he didnt sing
much, but he did talked our ears off
A waterbus passes thru Ponte di Rialto
Dancing in St. Marks Square...Volare
The Campanelle(bell tower) and the views
from the top
my favorite photo :), taken
from one of the Doge (do-jeh)arches
The architecture was really amazing
ALL the streets are this narrow
Inside the Rialto Bridge
The bridge has three walkways: two along the outer
balustrades, and a wider central walkway leading between two rows
of small shops that sell jewelry, linens, Murano glass, and other
items
The kids had a blast!
