The colours in Venice are amazing, and crumbling walls and peeling paint and the patina of centuries make for a visual feast at every level...
While we all try to comply with the latest changes (be assured we are in touch with Foreign and Commonwelath Office email alerts, airlines, insurance companies, local administrations etc, doing our best to stay safe and get home) take five and a deep breath to notice that there is still beauty all around....and spring is very likely still coming.

There are so many things to love about Italy and the peeling paint and crumbling walls are among my favourites. "The patina of centuries" - such exquisite words ...

I think the sunshine makes all the difference though. The same things at home don't look so romantic!
