Things NOT to do in Venice
 
...do not photograph St Mark's Square from a remote control gyro copter and do not pee on the police station. The police frown upon these activities. Just a heads up in case these were on your list of things to do in Venice. :D

Just two of the arrests we observed last week.

Don't swim naked in the canals

No, when swimming i the canals, be sure to wear a suit!

If you swim in the canals, be sure to take a shower with antibiotic soap afterwards.

Also in the local papers lately - don't wear beachwear (illustrated with photo of mature bloke in just skimpy shorts), sit on the ground or consume your own food & drink in St Mark's Square (actually, these last 2 apply anywhere, but you may get away with it elsewhere).
