Venice. Yes, it really is this beautiful.
Piazza San Marco. This is a very famous tourist pose, but the trick was that I had no food! If you just hold out your arm the pigeons will chill there, so there's no reason to buy the overpriced bird food.

Basilica di san Marco, Venice...beautiful!
Jumping in on the opening parade for Carnivale in February 2005.
Tourist Turned Gondaleer. Ya, I wish. My gondaleer was really cool and let me wear his hat and drive the boat, but for a picture only.
Murano. Gondola's aren't just for romantic dates, but also to sell fresh fruit! I thought this was so cool.

Gondola Ride, Venice. I was doing my best pose underneath the bridge Madonna made famous in her "Like A Virgin" video.
Jellyfish!! That massive thing was in the waters near Murano. That is definitely not a normal occurence in Venice- or anywhere in the world for that matter!
