Two visits to Venice have left me with the fondest memories you could imagine of a city that is like no other I have seen. An extraordinary place steeped in history and faded glory.
These are a few of my best memories from our first visit to Venice. I believe the photos speak for themselves. However, if you want to see and read more, you can have a look at my two books on Venice in the iBookstore, Venice Images and Reflections and Reflections of Venice. You can get a generous free preview of each if you like.

Two videos. The first is the gondolas at the bottom of St. Mark’s Square, bobbing up and down at night. A beautiful, calm scene. The second is more lively! Groups of excellent musicians play outside the various cafes in St. Mark’s Square. This one, outside Florian, was the best we saw.
