me across from the "House of Gold"

me near the rialto, posted by karlakp.

Across the Grand Canal is the Ca d' Oro, or house of gold. It used to be ornately painted and gilded on the outside.

Where I was standing was the outer edge of the fish market, one of the most beautiful markets I have ever seen, still in use every day.

Like my dress? I was feeling very artsy and girly that day.
