Isn't all that geography that nice to know? Now here's the really interesting stuff...St. Mark's Square, in the heart of Venice, has more tourists and pigeons per square mile than any other place on earth. My citiation isn't official here, its from my other half. But having been there in August. I can confirm. Its true. Birdflu be damned.
Even better, there are women and men who sell little packages of bread crumbs to feed the pigeons. Apparently, no tourist is complete without a photo of himself covered in pigeons. Do you really think this is sanitary?
Having said that, the Square is lovely, vibrant and interesting. The yellow and green tables in the picture above are outdoor cafes, where there are wonderful Italian muscians who will serenade you all through your cafe (coffee) or meal. Charming. Here on the Square, the architecture is also stunning and regardless of all the people, Venice is so enjoyable.
