Christmas lights and decorations are finally up, and lit, in St. Mark's square . Just thought I'd share a bit with you all.
Look carefully at the Campanile (Bell Tower). You will see white splotches on it. These are supposed to be snow flakes, and they move up the tower. They are projected onto the side. Impossible to capture this in a still photo.
St. Mark's square, of course!
The tree at the Monaco Hotel on Calle Vallaresso, just across from Harry's Bar
Lights along Calle Vallaresso
Hotel Luna Baglioni all lit up
The Christmas tree in St.Mark's square, just to the left of the Basilica

Lights and greenery strung under the sottoportego around the square

We walked down Calle Vallaresso several times a day during our last trip - we stayed at a nearby hotel. So nice to see the photo with the lights. Thanks!
Chris,
Prego! Thanks for sending the comment. Buon Natale from Venice!!
Thanks for the photos. I can't wait to be back in Venice. Your blog was a timely reminder to confirm the hotel reservation.
Grazie, Tim! So glad I could be of assistance. Make the reservation!!!
Such special images, thank you for sharing :)
Dublin Diary- my pleasure! Thanks so much for letting me know you enjoy my posts!! You made my day!
My favorite is the last photo which shows the chairs from I Quadri, my favorite cafe on Piazza San Marco. Thanks for sharing!
Thanks, Diane! My favorite is Florians, but .... anywhere in St. Mark's square is pretty darned good. Quadri's hot cioccolata is to die for, I will admit :) Buon Natale e Buon Anno!!
