It seems that lately almost all our guests have either just been to Venice or they are heading there next. Venice is only a 4 hour drive from our farmhouse or a quick train trip (you can catch it in Fano). I've been to Venice a handful of times & find it enchanting & beautiful - so thought I'd share a few of my fav pics!
MuranoMake sure to take a Vaporetto out to the sleepy island of Murano for a quiet escape. Not to mention this is where the glass is blown & you can buy earrings at half the price of Venice's shops!
If you are looking for a fun read & to make Venice in the 16th century come alive - check out In the Company of the Courtesan by Sara Dunant
Add it to the list!
