From Rialto Bridge With Love. Venice, Italy. June 2003.
I thought I would put a genuine throwback photo into the mix today. I studied abroad in Rome the summer of 2003. Weekends would entail jumping on a train and going somewhere in Italy. Venice was my final side trip before returning to the U.S., and it was the most magical. Yes, you are overcharged for a ride on a gondola, yes the water smells a bit, yes there were lots of pigeons in St. Mark's Square, but GDI do Venetians know how to make a good Bellini and live "la dolce vita".
