"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.

Aqua Alta in San Marco
Anyone been to Venice lately? I've been watching the webcams because in a few weeks, I'll finally make my 2008 trip to La Serenissima -- and I've been seeing a lot of acqua alta in San Marco, as shown in this photo.
I've been paddling in Venice two to three days a week for most of September, and there has been no extraordinary high tides. It has been raining quite a bit some days, though.
