Venice: Highlights of the City (Part 1)

In July, my sister and I spent 8 days exploring Italy.  It was a great chance to catch up and appreciate some one-on-one time that is so hard to come by as we get older and move apart.  Our first stop in Italy was Venice.  Of all the cities that I visited along the way, I think that I loved this city most.  The lack of cars and all the narrow twisting and narrow streets made it feel very special.
