*Streets of Ocean - a photo on Flickriver

*Streets of Ocean

            Sometimes there is a photograph that demands to be taken and will not wait another second!  So I didn't.

When the sun is high and the canals are narrow, there is always a gondola or two gliding under the bridges and through the painted streets of Venice.  I can still hear the sighing of the oars swishing into the sparkling water as a gondolier sings an enchanted song for lovers and passers by.

In this city we are all lovers whether we are alone or with someone else.  

The best part is that the views will never let you down ... even after you close your eyes!
