Can anyone help me find an old Venice thread please
 
A couple of years ago I was browsing old Venice threads and ran across a very interesting one that someone had put together but I lost my bookmarks when the hard drive went on my computer. I don't remember many details but I'm pretty sure something like the street numbering system was covered as well as following a trail round Venice, maybe of gargoyles. Sure there were gargoyles in there somewhere! It was a thread about lots of different things to look out for as you wandered round the city. I'm afraid I can't recall a lot more about this thread but it did stick in my mind as being full of information.

Does this ring any bells for anyone please? A link would be brilliant.

Thanks

Perhaps it was one of the threads written by Peter_S_Aus. He has written a number of threads that combine many aspects of Venice. You can use the advanced search for threads he's written and link to his member profile to search more.

I believe ellenem is correct. This thread may be what you're looking for.

It is!! Talk about not having much information to work on - well done.

I'll take a look at some of Peter's other threads too. Guess who's going to Venice!!

Thank you.

Carrie, I envy you!

The book "Secret Venice" by Jonglez is great - it will drag you around all sorts of places in Venice that you would otherwise not see.

The Venetian bowling club in Santa Croce for example, and the adjacent community gardens.

Hope you'll do a trip report!
