The most different thing I found about Venice that I'd not experienced at home was the lack of visual contact with the skyline. When you're on the waterways you can see the skyline, but as soon as you pass the first row of buildings lining them, you're surrounded on all sides by building such as these, old, rustic and intriguing. I found myself on many occassions staring up at the sky my imagination carried away with thoughts of who lives here and what goes on in there.

Venician Shops

The shop fronts in Venice are really clean and tidy, the shops themselves squeezed between and beneath various forms of accomodation. I've not seen, before or since such interesting, classy, fashionable shops. I know I could have spend weeks exploring them all, rifleing through each one by one, like a child sifting through their grandparents attic, in search of once-loved treasures.
