So I am heading back to Venice for Christmas (which I am soooo excited about). I lived there as a grad student in the early autumn of '98 so I know about the main things to see (Friari, San Marco........duh!...lol). Does anyone have any suggestions or insights about the Christmas season in particular? I will be there from 22 Dec-31 Dec. Grazie mille!

Here's a quick tip.
Try hard to find out what the schedule is at the Basilica of San Marco. Even if you are an atheist. It's a killer time to be there. Go to an evening mass, when the tourists are gone. Or look for concerts of sacred music there.
We will be visiting Venice for Christmas from New York. Can you recommend some interesting things to do? Arriving around December 17th. We have a 16 year old son who is very much into the history and the language.
Are you back???????

Where are you?

I've been writing heavily, and had to take a hiatus. Back in force. In the house.
