We enjoyed it a lot. Last time we were in Venezia was in December 2013. There were 4 huge cruise ships in port, buses loaded with tourists that made navigating through the streets on both sides of the Grand Canal seem like we were back in Manhattan on Times Square & Broadway on a Wednesday matinees play day. It wasn’t pleasant. Towards the evening hours when the cruise passengers flocked for dinner on their cruise ship and day trippers retreated to their buses it was a relief. However, the litter they felt was appalling. So, your article gives us the Santa Elena neighborhood to explore next visit to avoid the – – “Disneyland of Adults.”
Ciao,
M and G
