In what was no doubt a response to the weather, I had a decidedly quiet Sunday. But, I did find a few things to share with you.
This made me chuckle, because I am not one of those lucky folks who has an internal map loaded into their neurons, and this is how I often reach my destinations. I pretend I meant to take the long way.

Is this the least attractive bridge in Venice?
Oh, alright, if you insist! But it’s not a pretty sight.
You can see from that photo why elves are not allowed to be blood donors – they have too much haemogoblin in their blood. [Credit, if that’s the right word, to Tim Vine.]

Yes, that paint does make it look like it was used for the purpose it was intended to deter. Barb has it right “Ewwwwwwwwwww!”
And I agree about those red elves/knomes…very, very reminisent of that character….at least they weren’t that shiny red patent.
Glad you found some things of interest on your wanderings.

I could perhaps suggest to the shop owner that some modifications to the elves would add interest …

One of my favorite movies about Venice was “Don’t Look Now”. Those little red elves were very reminiscent of the very scary character in the movie.
And I guess the yellow paint on the pissotta naturally would make one say “Ewwwwww!” 🙂

You’re absolutely correct about both the elves and the pissotta. It made a good companion photo to the bridge.

That bridge is pretty bad!
