Today, I am inserting my own travel photo.
Carnevale is happening now in one of my favorite cities in the world.
Venice.
I searched through all of my photos of Venice to find one that really captured the city.
It was this one.
There is something about this photo. Sure, it’s touristy, but it’s what you think of if you haven’t been to Venice. The red geraniums, the black and white gondalier shirt, the murky aquamarine water and the shiney black gondola against the crumbling facades. That’s Venice.
It’s not the most mysterious photo, it doesn’t quite show off Venice in its best light.
But when you see it, you know in an instant where it was taken. Where else on earth could this picture be possible?
I’ll leave you with this quote about this charming city.
“Venice is like eating an entire box of chocolate liqueurs in one go.” –Truman Capote

And just a reminder about the deadline for the My Melange Sent Me event. We have reached that half-way mark and I have only received one picture to date. Yes, thanks Meredith!
That means you only have 2 more weeks to take your photo (complete with sign) and email it to me!
