Venice is a place that I think of when it comes to adventure. Part of the fun of finding interesting places there is to step away from the crowds and find scenes like this. Where is the gondola going? It could be anywhere but it certainly looks as though they are gliding toward an adventure.
For more examples look here.

I love the way you framed this photo with the tall, interesting architecture shown so beautifully in comparison with the size of the people. I hear centuries-old adventures playing out in this photo.
Thank you! It was such a quiet scene yet you could imagine that an adventure was about to occur… :)
Beautiful adventure post, Meg! Love this image.
Thanks Amy – I think that Venice has some really interesting adventures!
Love this! It’s not often Venice is portrayed in this way.
Thank you Leya! Venice is so fascinating, especially when you wander away from where all the people are… :)
It is also an adventure getting back to your hotel after a day of exploring those back streets. :D
That is so true Karen! You do a lot of walking in Venice and sometimes I take pictures along the way so I can find my way back… :)
Yes Europe and the beautiful buildings and history are a wonderful adventure.
They really are, and I enjoy seeing these fascinating buildings and wonder about all the things that have happened over the years!
If only the wall could talk ;)
They could tell great stories! :)
They certainly would. When I studied Roman Art and Architecture, in uni, some info they have is from graffiti of walls. :)
That must have been so interesting – it sounds like a good class!
It was great… I ended up liking the intro so much I signed on for part 1 and part 2 (2 more classes). It was a nice break from all the sociology and psychology stuff.
This is just lovely, I would love to visit. I watched a show the other night about how they are restructuring the base of Venice so it stops sinking ! Your photo is beautiful !
Thank you! I hope they can preserve Venice so that we can all enjoy it for a long, long time… :)
I hope so too cause its on my short list :)
You will really like Venice when you visit there!
I can’t wait! Thanks for sharing!
You are one of the most adventurous people I “know.”
I’ve really enjoyed all these travel adventures! :)
Beautiful photo…love, love, love Venice

Venice is so charming and this was something I was delighted to see as I was walking… :)
This is picture is stunning! It is scenes like this that make me feel like I have to include Venice on our Italian itinerary for next year.
Thanks and you should definitely include Venice – it’s really a gorgeous place!
Wish I was gliding towards adventure too! I know- I’m insatiable, Meg :)
Traveling is so much fun and I totally understand Jo! It’s always time for an adventure… :)
Beautiful picture of Venice.
