We went to the Guggenheim which was small and quiet and rather chic and I fell in love with
Jackson Pollock’s Eyes In The Heat
I couldn’t work out what was better the Pollock or the view
Of the Grand Canal
They had a few items displayed on the museum veranda which overlooked the Grand Canal
And we sat there for an age waving at the boats
And I don’t want to come home

I remember going to the Guggenheim when I was there! Great views from that terrace!
ReplyDeleteA Jackson Pollock print for your art wall maybe? I've no doubt that you'll be back in Venice very soon. xx
ReplyDeleteI have never seen the canal so empty was it very early in the morning?
ReplyDeleteRun away from home and become a gondolier in Venice!
ReplyDeleteYes! I can picture you as a gondolier. They have great hats!
DeleteAh, the perfect trip is one from which you do not want to return! It sounds like getting there was easy enough, perhaps begin to plan your return engagement now?

I imagine your fur family will be overjoyed to have you back home!
ReplyDeleteThank you for showing me a glimpse of Venice! It's the only way I could ever see it other then on PBS. 😊
I expect the invisible strings of love will call you to back Venice many times x ☕🏛⛲
ReplyDeleteYour posts are bringing back such wonderful memories of my visit there. Safe travels home, John!
ReplyDeleteOf course you must return: you haven't seen the Murano Glass place yet!
ReplyDeleteHappy last night and happy home coming!
Hugs!
What a wonderful trip you've had! Thanks ever so much for sharing with us all! Safe travels home.
ReplyDeleteVenice through your eyes is as close as I expect I will get. Sounds like a wonderful place and you had a fantastic trip. Hope the trip home is uneventful.

Venice a favorite.. and the gandola is definately for lovers. So says the wife. . ..along with a bottle of wine, cheese, salami and a glass of wine. A lovers treat.
ReplyDeleteSo glad you had a wonderful time,
ReplyDeleteYou've had a perfect holiday. A future return trip to Venice sounds like a plan.
ReplyDeleteI am mad-jealous! Oh to see this city!
ReplyDeleteI'm happy that everything worked out so nicely for you. I imagine this won't be the last time you go to Italy!~
ReplyDeleteOh John, that was such an amazing trip. It just shines through your posts and I have enjoyed being along for the ride as I won't experience it in person myself. You have given me a perfect little taster.
ReplyDeleteVenice is very nice but Italy has many more very nice places to explore! Glad you had a great break. GG
ReplyDeleteI can only imagine that three days was not nearly enough.
