Let's go back in time

Let’s go to Venice and marvel at the view.

Let’s look down narrow canals and at gondolas and colourful houses.

Let’s also look at wider canals with less colourful houses.

Let’s take pictures of other people taking pictures (and let’s also see the guy on the right later in the day again somewhere else in Venice too).

Let’s see a hug from a distance.

Let’s look at shafts of light and at shadows.

Let’s look at the majestic

and the less so.

Let’s look at cool signage and great colour combos.

Let’s walk for ages and ages, through quiet and narrow streets to find the best gelateria in town.

Let’s take the water bus back home to where we’re staying and take in the beautiful architecture on the way.

Let’s walk the last bit and marvel at what someone else’s everyday life looks like.

Let’s go out for dinner later and feel like we’ve traveled back hundreds of years in time.

I’m reading Venice by Jan Morris at the moment (ridiculously well written), so I’m really glad that I can look at the pictures from our trip there in March 2019. Who knows how long it’ll be until we can go abroad again (next year maybe??), so I’m making sure I read my way out of the here, and am grateful for all the trips I’ve ever made in the past, and for the fact that I’m forever taking pictures. Where are you dreaming yourself off to these days?
