You don’t walk very far in Venice, or the lagoon islands, without seeing street shrines.
This is one I particularly liked.
A good blog to read, if you are interested in knowing more about some of the shrines and capitelli in Venice is http://www.slowtrav.com/blog/annienc/
How lovely. I can see why you enjoy it. Where is it?
I love Annie’s blog! I need to post comments on her blog!
Susie, I didn’t make note of where you can find that shrine. Mi dispiace!
Bert, the Lone Ranger, to the rescue!
Dorsoduro 35, Calle del Squero.
I cheated, but I’m not saying how!
Hi-yo, Silver, awaaaayyyy!
So who’s your Tonto then Bert? We all know the Lone Ranger was nothing without Tonto.
Rob
And, where do you keep Silver??
Thanks, Bert-o. (Who is that strange masked man?)
Bert is right! I love that shrine too, and this is a lovely photo of it.
Hi, Annie. There are so many shrines tucked into hidden spaces in Venice. That one is just special.
Of course I’m right, annie! I got the answer from your blog! Ooops – I wasn’t going to say how I did it.
Wow – Bert, Annie and Yvonne; what a team!
Let’s see, 2 of Charlie’s Angels, and The Saint??
Bert you cheat
Lovely photo.
Rob
He blew his cover that time, Rob.
Thank you for your kind words.
Still posting, fantastic!
Bert, here I thought you had all you info in your head!
Yvonne I hope you are weathering your Venice withdrawl ok.
Hello, Other Yvonne. Once the weather cools down in my neck of the woods, I’ll be a bit happier! Is spring showing any signs of poking its nose out, in your area?
Oh, you know, Southern Alberta.
One minute that, next minute ….this?
Easy, dry winter….probably hot dry summer.
Hope your cooler-happier soon.
Did you know that ‘tonto’ meant dull, silly, or stupid in Italian (and Spanish)?
Tonto was played by Jay Silverheels in the TV series. He was born Harold J. Smith – isn’t that disappointing? The Lone Ranger was the best thing on TV in the late 50s.
Definition of an intellectual: Someone who can hear the William Tell Overture without thinking of the Lone Ranger.
The only information in my head is what I learned before I was 11. Everything else comes off the interweb.
We walked past this yesterday & I recognised it from your blog, Yvonne!
Oh, that’s terrific! Thank you for telling me about it.
What is on your menu today? I am so impressed by what you are cooking and eating.
