wanderlustian:Lmao @ the bolded.... And who is the devil? Perhaps The devil is the dubious train pilot that refuse to heed to necessary safety precautions before takin off. Perhaps the devil is the driver who might have been drunk before embarking on such journey. The world will be a much better place if we can extricate this superstitions. 6 Likes 1 Share |

Sorry people I have been in transit forever. We just got into Nigeria, the flight left just in time before the Turks decided to stage a coup. So we got to Venice that day, it was so crowded. Dunno where there are so many tourists all over Italy. 5 Likes

Venice is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed by 177 canals in a shallow lagoon, connected by 409 bridges.[49] In the old centre, the canals serve the function of roads, and almost every form of transport is on water or on foot. In the 19th century, a causeway to the mainland brought the Venezia Santa Lucia railway station to Venice, and the Ponte della Libertà road causeway and parking facilities (in Tronchetto island and in piazzale Roma) were built during the 20th century. Beyond the road and rail land entrances at the northern edge of the city, transportation within the city remains (as it was in centuries past) entirely on water or on foot. Venice is Europe's largest urban car-free area. Venice is unique in Europe, in having remained a sizable functioning city in the 21st century entirely without motorcars or trucks. 3 Likes 1 Share

The classical Venetian boat is the gondola, (plural: gondole) although it is now mostly used for tourists, or for weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies, or as 'traghetti' (sing.: traghetto) to cross the Canale Grande in the absence of a nearby bridge. Many gondolas are lushly appointed with crushed velvet seats and Persian rugs. Less well-known is the smaller sandolo. 1 Like
