Have you decided where you are going on your honeymoon? Steve wants to go to the Maldives, but I fancy Venice. Ah, Venice! Everyone knows Venice with its gondolas bobbing on the Grand Canal, a picturesquely decaying city sinking slowly into the waters of the Lagoon. But that's not all, it's a surprising place. One surprise is that you will spend most of your time walking – the pavements play as major a role in the city as the canals. Yes, and there are no cars. Drivers have to leave their vehicles at the city gate, and that makes exploring the city very enjoyable. I think it's better to go off the beaten track too, find some little alle ys, churches and markets that most tourists don't know about. Good idea, most tourists will probably head for the Basilica di San Marco, the most exotic of European cathedrals and the Gothic marvel, the Doge's Palace. Isn't San Marco the patron saint? Yes, that's why St. Mark's Church is named after him.
