"The most obvious fact about Venice, bound to strike even the most casual visitor, is the utter improbability of the place." (A Traveller's History of Venice) Weird Venice celebrates that improbability.

Venice on "Good Morning America"
Venice was featured on ABC-TV's "Good Morning America" (BMAC) program this morning. Unfortunatley, I missed it, but the GMAC website (http://abcnews.go.com/GMA/) has the story. There's a video clips on "Can Venice Be Saved?" and one featuring Thom Price, an North Carolina native, who nows builds gondolas in Venice. I haven't watched it yet, but I bet it's fascinating. A few years ago, Thom gave me a tour of his squero and explained the gondola-building process.
