Venice is very known for it's gondolas.Gondola is one of the means of transportation in Venice.Venetian people use it until now eventhough there are lots of ferries available.It is practical to use gondolas especially in the small or petite canals where ferries couldn't pass.
When we were there,we didn't have the chance to ride it coz Alex was still young and moves a lot.We were afraid that Alex will have tantrums and will move a lot while riding the gondola.We just contented looking those numerous gondolas and their gondoliers passing through the canals.

It's spring now!!!!
I am glad that it's spring now and I can finally say goodbye to my thick coats.I really hate winter,not only it's very cold season but I hate to wear piles of thick clothes just to keep me warm.
Spring and summer are my favorite seasons.I like spring coz it's not very cold and not very hot.The flowers now are starting to bloom.Some of my jacinthes flower are already blooming.It smells very good but this time I don't want to cut it and put in the vase.I just let it there in our garden.
I like spring season but it's also a pain for me if I don't take my medicine.I am allergic to pollen.It's bizarre coz when I was still in Philippines,I am not allergic to pollens,it was only when I arrived here.So for me not to suffer sore eyes and itchy nose,I have to take some pills before the spring starts until summer.
But nonetheless,I am happy that it's SPRING now :)

Feeding the pigeons in St Mark's Square,Venice Italy
When visiting Venice,tourist usually go to St. Mark's Square or Piazza San Marco to see the St. Mark's Basilica and Doge's Palace.And from that place you will also get to see the grand lagoon.
If ever you will visit the place,try to feed the pigeons.It's one of the attractions there.There are lots of them waiting for you to give them grains,biscuits and breads.If they think that you have some foods for them,they will immediately flock around you :)
Aside from the photos that we have with the Basilica and the palace,I also really like our photos feeding the pigeons.It was really an experience!

The beautiful Venice,Italy
One of the european places that I really would like to visit again is Venice.The place is so beautiful and it's easy to roam around coz you just have to hop a boat to another.If you talk about Venice,I am sure you will think immediately the very known Gondolas that pass through the small and grand canals.
When we were there it was almost the end of the summer,they were many people encore and the weather was so nice and warm!We had a great time visiting the St Mark's Basilica,Doge's Palace,Rialto Bridge and watching the gondolas.Too bad,we did not have a chance to experience to ride a gondola.
Hope someday we can go back there again.
