Venice

Venice

In Venice, you can wear a blindfold while taking photographs. It doesn’t matter where you point the camera, it’s all beautiful. James and I have been avoiding the touristy stuff as much as possible while staying here. Standing in a long queue in the heat and humidity to see the inside of a building for five minutes isn’t exactly our idea of “a holiday” so instead we’ve been roaming the streets with our cameras and stalking the locals to find the best places to eat.

    Venice is the best place to get lost! And it’s so easy to escape the crowd if you’re prepared to explore a little…....and yes, every lane is a photo opportunity :)

    Have fun you two !!
