Europe Vacation: Venice, Italy – Gondolas

Europe Vacation: Venice – Gondolas

We took another overnight ferry from Corfu to Venice, Italy.  Once we arrived we took a traditional Gondola ride.  What wasn’t traditional was that our gondolier refused to sing for us!  I thought that was expected so I had to sing for the group 🙂 !  Our gondolier also had two accidents on our trip – so it was quite an adventure.

The theme of this spread is twofold.  The first is that it is all on water and so I used a water background for both pages.  The other is more subtle.  A gondoliers traditional uniform is the blue and white striped shirt – so I bordered each photograph with a white border to hint at the theme.  I used a corner cutter to round both the photograph and the white border.
