At the crack of dawn.. yes.. way way early in the morning, well, at least for me it is!! Around 6.45am, we met up and head to the main train station in Milan to catch the train to Venice. this picture taken with my cheap casio digital camera.. not bad huh?? Baby.. proud of me?? hehhe.. and who says u need pro camera to shoot good pictures?? perhaps the skills lies with the cameraman.. or my case, camerawomen :) *wink *
All of us inside our 2nd class carriage :( we didn't book our tickets earlier so no seats were allocated to us!! " Just seat anywhere that's empty.." the lady at the ticket booth told us.. and so we did exactly that!! Thank god the train wasn't full. heheh..thou we were smarter coz we bought the tickets for the return trip too thus having seats allocated to us..
The first scene that capture syour eyes when you stepped out of the station!! BEAUTIFUL and BREATHTAKING VENICE!!! Everywhere is covered with water!! no cars or lorries... even teh bus an dtaxi are boats!! water bus and taxis!!
See what i mean!!?? The front porch of a typical house in Venice ain't no porsche or ferrari.. it's a speedboat!!!
This is where these well decorated masks originated.. perfect for any ball or a costume party.. good for holloween too..hoooo
