Venice, No lack of water here.

Although I didn’t have Americano Coffee I suspect it would have had water since Venice was flooded today. It is the season of Aqua Alta or high water and apparently today it was very high. When we got there at 10 it was near high tide and we had to buy boots to get around. Here is a couple of pictures, one blurry because with the rain I didn’t have my high speed stop action camera.

A good 50 yards from the canal

Piazza San Marco 5 hours before this picture was covered with 2-3 ft of water. It floods normally in the high water but normally not that much it seems.
