I have decided to give everyone a glimpse of my day in Venice before boarding our cruise ship to sail the Aegean and Mediterranean sea - This was my second visit to Venice, and it was indeed a wonderful visit in the Summer time. Note the BIG gelato - the BEST in the WORLD!! Let me know what you think! Please share your own photos in your comments - would love to see them
I created this video with the YouTube Slideshow Creator (http://www.youtube.com/upload)

What a great video! Did you know they have a punt ride in Denver, Colorado? It is on the Cherry Creek and is about 48 miles long. It is called Venice on the Creek.

that sounds like a great thing to have, who says it can only happen in Venice

Beautiful slideshow Lany. I have been several times to Venice. It seems that tourists love this city, there are other Italian cities that I like more.

@Inlemay Milan is not a nice city, it's an industrial city, Rome, Florence, Siena, Perugia, many smaller cities in Tuscany are beautiful.

Oh i agree - there are others that are more beautiful - getting to Venice via bus the first time i found not so great, but arriving on the Train the second time was great. I love Rome, I would love to see Milan better, I loved Napels, there are many more, but who has the time to see them all on a schedule

That was an interesting slide show. It took be back to my visit there - a part of our Europe package covering Venice, Rome and Pisa. Who could forget the pigeons in St. Mark Square - their 24 hour orchestra, or the late evening experience on the beach, a visit to the Murano Glass Works and last but not the least the water bus experience. The only thing I did not want to do was the gondola ride as I found the water to be dirty on the day we landed there.

I love this Venice and I visited it several times. I have considered to buy a house there to retire.

I agree - i dont think it can be appreciated by anyone under the age of 18 as I noticed one of our tour families, their children lagged behind and cried and were just a pain

I saw the sun rise over Rome, standing on the steps of a 747, I was 15 years old. But have no photos of it, you are lucky to have this slideshow to share.

Venice is achingly beautiful at dawn before people are crawling all over it!

Venice has an atmosphere that is unlike any other. I can feel it even through photos. It would be interesting to see.

Food is my recipe for happiness. Gelato was looking mouth watering alright. Pity I left eating ice creams and chocolates. I will break the rule some day I know. The video was great sweetie, even the other one with shadow of art work. Thanks for sharing Lany.

What a delightful little video, the music you chose was just right for the video too. I loved the glass vases and as for that BIG gelato, it looks scrumptious, but these days I am not sure I would have been able to eat all of it. I also had a look at your Kruger Park Safari while I was there, and I love the music you have used on that video, it suits it so perfectly.
