Venice - romantic, unique and like nowhere else in the world! Your first inkling that this place is not like anywhere else is when you arrive at Piazzale Roma to find your water taxi. Somehow all these gorgeous mahogany boats manage to jockey into position to pick up their passengers.
It is so congested you cannot believe you will be able to get onboard before another taxi manages to slip into the spot and push your boat out. But it all magically works and soon you are making your way to the docks at your hotel. We spent two days and two nights in Venice at the Londra Palace on the Grand Canal and it was wonderful!
