Hi Girasoli, great photo. I tried to find one from Venice too but didn't have one with only six. I loved watching the traghettos on the grand canal and this is a fabulous choice. The angle is perfect with the Venetian Architecture in the background.
Btw, your Celtics gave our Lakers a run for their money. It was an awesome game 7 and if Perkins wasn't injured I think your team would've won.
Have a wonderful weekend.

I love it! I would be the one int the back sitting down. I love to ride the traghetto but not standing up. Great find for the six theme!

Good catch - I tried to get Sandi onto one of those to cross the canal when we were in Venice but she just wouldn't do it. LOL

Great Shot. Where did you take it from? We took one once - but I had to sit down. Yeah... not very Venetian.

Thanks everyone. This was a tough hunt for me this week. I searched and searched and searched and finally found this photo. I have only been on a traghetto a couple of times myself, mostly because I couldn't figure out how it worked (the payment/where the boat went/etc) during my first few visits to Venice. My prior sailboat work experience (I was the Mai Tai girl) has helped with balancing skills so I have no problems standing but can understand all who either will not travel by traghetto or need to sit.
Marta, I believe I took this photo while riding on a Vaparetto.
