My Dream Destination is...
Venice, Italy
Looks so romantic, right? I know, I know, I am a hopeless romantic, and the thought of visiting this makes me giddy.
I'd love to float around in a gondola, experience the culture, and the history stamped on it's walls and waters.
Attend the carnival and dress-up. Aren't the costumes gorgeous?
Plus Venice is Antonio Vivaldi's birthplace! How cool is that!!! :D
I leave you with a breathtaking image of this beautiful city.
What about you? What's your dream destination?
To check out the rest of this hop's participants,
It would be a beautiful place to visit!
ReplyDeleteYes, yes, yes. Venice will do! :)
ReplyDeleteNot to sound totally stuck-up, but Venice is utterly amazing. I did enjoy some of the other nearby islands a little more though (less tourists, lol!). Personally, right now, I'd just want to be home. Back in Cali with my family. But, a trip to visit friends on the beach in Mexico also sounds pretty dang nice (especially with the temps dipping below zero here today).
ReplyDeleteVenice seems to be a popular place on this blog hop! I agree. Venice would be a terrific place to visit!
ReplyDeleteOh yes, Venice would be such an amazing place to visit! It almost seems like a fairytale land with the gondolas and stunning architecture.
ReplyDeleteThanks so much for taking part in our hop, Cecilia!
Italy - Florence, in particular - was my pick! Loved Florence! I'd also like to see Venice and lots of the smaller towns, too.
ReplyDeleteAh, Venice. I would love to go someday! filled with fantasy and I bet the food is yummy. And the wine.
ReplyDeleteThe colors and the romance makes me want to visit Venice, too!
ReplyDeleteThere's so many places I'd love to visit. Every country on South-East Asia, Australia, New Zealand, Japan, South Africa, India, Cuba, Brasil... And of course Tenerife and the other Canaria Islands. I have an endless list!
ReplyDeleteI think anyone with even the teensiest flicker of romance in her heart would get all aflutter at the thought of going to Venice. (I'd want our gondolier to sing to us in a deliciously beautiful clear tenor voice. YUM.) Great choice!
ReplyDeleteWhat a great choice. There's nowhere else in the world like Venice. It's got so much romantic and exciting history, and who wouldn't love a gondola ride? Your pics are so lovely. Makes me want to go there right now! Thanks for joining the hop! :-)
ReplyDeleteVenice is a wonderful choice, particularly if you can take the one you love with you. :)
ReplyDeleteAh... Venice. A great choice. It's such a unique city. And so pretty too.
ReplyDeleteOh to be in Venice during a carnival with those lovely masks. What a wonderful dream that I hope you make a reality.
ReplyDeleteI've always wanted to go, but my mum just returned and says it was over priced and smelt like a sewer! She lacks a sense of romance mind you, perhaps that's require to override the less pleasant aspects of it? We wed in the Venetian Hotel in Vegas... (stunning!) but still long for the original city. :)

There's just something so magical about Venice, isn't there? It's like Atlantis .... but above water!
ReplyDeleteAh yes. The closest I've been to that splendid romantic scene is the Venitian Hotel in Vegas.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos and dream.
It's great to meet you here and join your following.
Have a nice weekend.

Oh! Wonderful choice. Let's go during Carnival season, in masks and ball gowns! See you there! New follower!
ReplyDeleteVenice, how wonderful. Some day, I'll actually leave my home town.
ReplyDeleteBeen to Venice once a couple of years ago and I loved it. Ok, there are way too many tourists and doves, but aside from that, it's a lovely place with many, many cool places :)
ReplyDeleteGreat post!
Venice is definitely on my list of dream destinations, too. I want to visit it while it's still far enough above-water! Yes, a gondola ride, visit to museums, some gelato, yummy.

Venice is quaint... utterly charming. And your pics are gorgeous!
ReplyDeleteWriter In Transit
Venice is on my list too!
ReplyDeleteAlso, I just wanted to share, I am hosting a massive book giveaway (14 authors, 15 books)
Gorgeous pictures and such beautiful color. Venice...ah the love it exudes.
ReplyDeleteYou've picked one of my favourite places in the world. I've been to Venice and it really is breathtaking! Not only are the canals extraordinary, but also the maze of little back streets and tiny shops overflowing with masquerade treasures for Carnivale. *sigh* I really hope you make it there one day, Cecelia! :)
ReplyDeleteYou are so right. It is beautiful.
ReplyDeleteAnna from Shout with Emaginette
Wow your photos are gorgeous! Now, I want to go to Venice~ It looks so magical n' of course romantic~
ReplyDeleteVenice is a wonderful spot. Still haven't figured out how the waterways work with the buildings and stuff, but it's definitely a unique place in which to live. A gondola ride would be lovely.
ReplyDeleteYou made me want to change my destination, CeCe! Great pictures.
