I've spent more than two decades living in a country that
millions of vacationers come to every year. So, yesterday when my husband and I
had the pleasure of showing some dear friends from Los Angeles around Venice, I
decided to take a vacation, too—by staying home. I thought I’d take you along
with us and post a photo or two a day over the next week or so. I took all the photos either from our water taxi or while on foot...so let's go on vacation...together!
