Sorry for the unannounced disappearance last week! I’ve been to Venice for a few days and was meaning to post about it before I went but never got round to it.
I’m starting to catch up now with all your blog posts I’ve missed while I’ve been away, as well as writing about all the books I’ve been reading recently. But for now, I’ll leave you with some pictures from my trip to Venice. It’s the first time I’ve been and it’s as beautiful and unique as everybody says it is.
The Bridge of Sighs
One of Venice’s many canals
Gondolas
The Grand Canal
View across the lagoon to San Giorgio Maggiore
The waterfront near San Zaccaria

And two pictures taken on the island of Murano

Gorgeous photos! Thanks for sharing.
Helen, how exciting! It looks like you had wonderful weather while you were there. I’ll look forward to hearing more.
Beautiful! I would love to go back, it’s been too long.
Oh, how wonderful! It looks as if you had gorgeous sunshine… can’t wait to hear your further thoughts on it. Welcome home! 🙂
Lucky you. It looks sparkling in the sunshine. And doesn’t seem to have too many crowds to contend with.
Lovely photos! Glad you enjoyed your trip 🙂
I envy you :)! Beautiful pictures. I’ve been in Venice years ago, and on the island of Murano to. It was a great trip, and I would love to go back.
How wonderful – gorgeous images. I haven’t been to Venice for 20 years — really *must* be time to go back.
Wow, what a week you have! And look at your new layout! I love it 🙂 Welcome, back, Helen.
I am glad you liked it. I hope you had a wonderful time. I sometimes go to Venice to be on my own, with my thoughts.
Glad you enjoyed your trip, and thank you for sharing these wonderful photos.
Beautiful, and what a good time to go with the weather! Glad you had a nice time.
Gorgeous photos! I need to make it to Venice one of these days.
Thank you for sharing – it looks great. And I have just read a lovely floaty book by Veronica Henry – A Night on the Orient Express which obviously ends up in Venice – it has tied in very nicely with these photos.
Ooooh fab pics! I love Venice, I visited for the first time in February. It’s such a beautiful city 😀
