VENICE - A BRIEF INTERLUDE

[Judyjeme]

That is a beautiful place, would love to have a look and feel there. So many beautiful buildings and the water everywhere, think this is a great place to visit in early spring. A little less cold and a bit more blossom perhaps to make pretty pictures. Are the museums open during wintertime? Thanks Chris, I really enjoyed this video

[sweetlightsoul]

Wish to visit Venice soon! Thank you for this very nice and informative video! : )

[beatryxa]

Here in Mexico there was a doctor from a Venetian family, he abandoned Venetia cause he there llived on a house that always was filled whit water

[Sigrid74]

[ashjonesnwpb]

Merry christmas :), really enjoyed this video, its been somewhere ive allways wanted to visit.

[Wysper]

Great videos as usual, Chris. Thanks again for a super job.  Happy Christmas to you (from cold and snow-covered Pennsylvania).

[Elfishgene]

Such a shame, nothing has seemed to have change in Venice since i was last there in the late 80's, the shear beauty of the place was marred by the appalling smell(its still truly medieval in some places) and crushing throng of tourists who'd knock you flying in anticipation of buying a cheap costume mask...i'm still gonna pop in for a quick visit next year tho whilst on my way to Rome.

[slessorpr]

How do the Venetians 'intend to lower the lagoon'? Raise the city perhaps but the sea won't be getting any lower...This also points out the plight of small Pacific island nations whose land is also being swallowed by rising sea levels worldwide.

[Constantine99999]

"How do the Venetians 'intend to lower the lagoon'? "

Simple idea - You build a boom across the lagoon and then drain the water from around the city. That`s how. Unfortunately the concern is that human waste will be trapped inside the boom and not being flushed back into the sea.

Beautifully shot and pieced together.

Thanks Sharon, and have a great Christmas and New Year!

[methodistgirl]

That was really beautiful. The scenes

and the music. I love that kind of music

at Christmas time.instead of the

traditional carols. Classical music

sounds more like Christmas.

I enjoyed this film ...trip to Venice...a wonderful place full of History...beautiful...thanks for sharing !!!

[Constantine99999]

Thanks Heidi:) It was such a romantic and beautiful place. I must definately return!! :)

[Llzdd]

WOW!! I really enjoyed the tour you shared with us, Chris.

It's too bad the city is going in ruins and I hope a solution will come soon to hopefully keep it's history and beauty intact.

Very beautiful video and it looks like you had a inspiring time while there.

Happy holidays, Leanne

[Constantine99999]

Thanks Leanne:)

The repetitive flooding is putting many people off renovating, and now the city needs immediate action to help it. Let`s hope it happens soon! :)

Hope you and your family have a great Christmas.

[Cherri59]

How beautiful! I hope they are able to fix their tidal water issues. I would love to see the city someday!

Merry Christmas to you, your family and all your viewers!

[Constantine99999]

Thanks Cherri:) And thanks for the seasonal greets!

[metelbearr]

thanx for sharing your trip to venice chris. happy holidays. cheers from florida.

[Constantine99999]

Thankyou very much - really appreciated.

I wish I was in the sun right now! :)

[mmedefarge]

Thanks for sharing this beautiful vid with us. It brings back memories. Have a wonderful Christmas.

[mmedefarge]

This time of year is usually the flooding time, fall/winter. I thought that the sewage problem was addressed years ago! I went there at the end of summer (years ago) & there was no hint of a sewage problem then. It's disheartening to hear that the city is being abandoned. It does look more ragged than I remember it but it still has not lost it's charm or grandeur. I walked the streets every night & thought that it had a lot of spirit. Went to a concert @ Fenice before the Mafia burned it.

[Constantine99999]

Before going to Venice I was told the sewerage problem had been cured too. But being there, there is definitely a whiffy pong in some parts, and it isn`t seaweed.

A recent report by independent scientists claims the lagoon waters are infected by harmful bacteria - caused by sewerage, and that citizens are still forced to tip effluence into the canal. The new tidal boom might also be a problem as the Adriatic flushes out effluence on the tide. A boom across the lagoon will keep it all back!

[mmedefarge]

Wow, more problems than I thought. It seems to be a catch 22; the cure for one problem will only exacerbate the other. The sewage problem sounds much like the same type of problem that people with septic tanks have when it rains too much, only on a way grander scale. Very sad.

[Constantine99999]

I`m sure they`ll realise the boom might not be such a great idea, but I`m hopeful they will start work soon. Best wishes to you at Christmas:)

[doowop62]

The greatness of that which was once great is still visible to the spectators eye, although tide wasted buildings do little to project the fantastic greatness of the city in it's past glory. I hope not all is ruined for the tourist who are yet to visit Venice. Surely the ghost spirits are there but inaccessible without a guide. Short visits excuses any discoveries that you might have made in the range of spirits. Excellent presentation of this part of a grand old city's water ways.

Dabe

[Constantine99999]

Thanks Dabe:) Our 24 hour visit simply wasn`t long enough to thoroughly look for paranormal stuff, but the City is always beautiful whether it be day or night.

[flexina]

Awsome :) Merry christmas and a happy new year to you too ;)

[Constantine99999]

Thankyou Flexina:) And I hope 2010 is your year!

[JoGurlzStuff]

Thanks Jo, It is so beautiful I was speechless - and that`s a rare event:)

Glad you enjoyed!

[suesue19611]
