1waters "THOSE WHO WANDER ARE NOT NECESSARILY LOST" -- JRR Tolkien
i arrived a few days before carnival, which was a perfect way to do it because it allowed me to explore venice pre carnival crowd! then carnival started and it was very cool to see all those unbelievable costumes, experience the excitement. carnival is very much more of a family event than i imagined, with lots of period costumes in addition to the amazing masked costumes, and lots of vivaldi being played. i’m very glad i went and experienced this!
