They are all so chic!<br />I remember the room in the 2nd! Went I was 16, I spent the summer back in Yugoslavia (mostly Pula), and my grandmother treated me to a few days in Venice (went with her, my aunt, and another woldly but older woman). As you can imagine, while I appreciated the experience, it was not an ideal travelling arrangement from a 16-yr-old's perspective. Anyway, back to the room ... since I spoke/understood English, my grandmother prodded me to tag behind an American tour group ... in this room I was approached by an midldle aged American man who asked me to stop tagging along... they all paid money for the guided tour. Intersting how people leave a longer impression than even all the splendor of a palace. (PS --- I didn't inherit my grandma's opportunistic nature.)Tashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098034737961019226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8558559381295017448.post-17585142201989552252013-07-28T17:52:46.356-04:002013-07-28T17:52:46.356-04:00Nice images!
