Giorgio Armani, Brunello Cucinelli, Gucci, Chanel, Ferragamo, Prada, Valentino, Cartier, Lou’s Vuitton, Jimmy Choo, Dior are all within two blocks on my accommodation. Yet walk 50 feet between two blind alleys and with luck find my humble digs in a hidden square. This is truly Venice.
Though Venice is only 2 and 1/2 square miles, it’s a spider web of canals making walking on land a challenge. Water taxis are the best way to go. I sat in the immediate front of the Vaporetto taxi with a grin on my face riding to my accommodation. I’m here.
