Yesterday my Italian friend Roberta and I went to Venice for Carnevale. We had a great time, but it was the most crowded I've ever seen Venice. Of course, I took tons of pics and thought I'd share some with you.
First glimpse of Venice
These are a typical Carnevale treat. There are several different things they put in them. Mine had ricotta, raisins and some other things. They are AMAZING!
I loved the various costumes that we saw. Here are Snow White, the 7 Dwarfs and the Evil Queen
Some of the lavish costumes we saw while in San Marco Square
Yours truly with some of the characters
A more unusual headpiece
This is my favorite pic I took yesterday
Twilight in Venice
Carnevale is exhausting...especially for little flamingos
Ducks on parade
My friend Roberta and I. She told Italian guys on the way back we were cousins, they believed her. That may have been more believable because they were intoxicated.
Actually you guys could be sisters! And what a fun, unbelievable experience.
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures! Looks like a fun time!
ReplyDeleteWe went to Venice three years ago. We had such a great time! I love your pictures. And I have to agree: Your friend and you look like sisters.
ReplyDeleteLooks like you had a fun day! I'd love to experience Italy in the future.
ReplyDeleteNo kidding...you guys totally look related! What a fun trip. Those costumes are incredible!

ReplyDeleteLooks like it was fun! You'd be surprised what people will believe. I have a cousin who I'm not even technically related to and people used to think we were twins when we were little.
ReplyDeleteYou guys do look related, and I'm definitely not intoxicated. Your pictures of Venice are wonderful, it looks like so much fun.
