The most romantic place I've ever visited is Venice, Italy. When you get off the train, walk through the
station, and open the doors, it’s like stepping into a fairy tale. The streets
are all canals, and ornate ancient bridges span the canals, including the
famous Bridge of Sighs, where prisoners gazed upon the city for the last time
on their way to be locked up. On our last trip to Venice, I planned the trip to
coincide with the full moon. When darkness fell, my husband and I had dinner
and walked around. No moon yet. We stopped at a café and had gelato and
cappuccino. No moon yet. We crossed a bridge and strolled some more. Still no
moon. Finally, at 11:30, it rose, glowing and sending shimmering moonbeams over
the canals. So I hadn’t figured what time that full moon was supposed to
appear!
