When you think of Italy, the possibilities of things that
pop into your mind are endless…food, wine, history, soccer, Mussolini the list
can go on and on, but if you get more specific and think of Venice the list of
first thoughts will greatly narrow. And for many the first things you thought
of when you heard Venice was Gondola.

The famed boats of Venice are one of the most iconic images
of the great city and carry a unique mystique amongst the world. The thought of
a romantic gondola ride has been something associated with the boat for years
and years. Countless couples have ridden the solo captained boats throughout
the canals of Venice. One day I hope to share such a experience with my future
wife, where ever she may be currently. It wouldn’t be the first time I ride one
of the boats but I’m will to bet it will be much more romantic then when I rode
it with 5 of my buddies from High School, whom thought its be hysterical to try
and convince the Gondolier to flip the boat so I fell out. Yeah, real
romantic….
Nonetheless it was an awesome experience traveling thorough
the canals which so many before me traveled. My first time was almost 7 years
ago (as if I haven’t been feeling old enough as it is) yet it still resonates
clearly in my memory. It was then when I
thought how awesome it would be to share this experience with someone truly
special and it is now that I continue to imagine how the experience will go
once I find her. Until that day I can do nothing but wait and dream, but hey that’s
Life in a nutshell, a lot of waiting and a lot of dreaming. Until then…..
