The game cheated me out of a wedding and honeymoon with Michelle Martinez but let her keep her 4 other husbands- give me my mock wedding and real honeymoon for wedding the game- Bring the cheater- I'll screw him too..
Very nice work, thanks. I would like to add something that burns me inside. The lions of Arsenale. The stole from Fr.Morozini from Piraeus, Delos and Athens at 1688. These lions are waiting the return to their country and their freedom... M.D.
I must correct you on one comment: there are three bells in the Campanile in St. Mark's Square. I was up there and they all went off - it was deafening!
Also, even though all the boats' wakes spoil the various glorious buildings, so does the oil and, unfortunately, the pigeons really ruin everything. That's why the Venetians hate them.
You never mentioned that Napoleon stole the four horses on the Basilica which is why the originals are kept inside - for safety.
@verzosaddm Yes that betrayer dwarf had stolen the horses, but they came back after the Wien Congress in 1815. Probably we have to thank Canova for that.
The original bronze horses are inside the loggia, so you have to PAY to see them! They are not in danger of being stolen these days, by the French or anyone else!
I was there a couple of weeks a go for 6 days -- wonderful place. This may sound hypocritical, but the place is totally over-run by tourists. How much longer can Venice stand up to all the visitors I wonder?
Utterly fantastic - Venice has never looked so beautiful on video. Obviously, real life is so different and there are no words to describe the magnificent beauty of this city.
By the way (and this isn't a complaint) you shouldn't show a video of Venice WITHOUT,apart from gondolas, the most common form of transport - the vaporetti. Also, why none of the Arsenale?
Thank you so very, very much for this video and for all the details alongside.
I don't think the vaporetti have much historical/cultural interest - and their wash damages the buildings. But I agree with you on the Arsenale - which was the engine of the Venetian empire!
You lucky thing, being there only recently. I totally agree with you re the tourists - but there is another way of looking at it. Where would Venice be without her revolting (and we're oneof them!) summer tourists. Think of the revenue we bring in.
Regarding the vaporetti. I agree that they don't have an historical/cutural interest, and I know that their wash damages the beautiful buildings, but they are still important because they show how Venetians live today.

Some serious work is needed on your sound, the images are ok but on camera comments defeat the purpose...
