this week in venice

Monday, March 9th, 2009

Luxury hotels along the Grand Canal are giving even a 70 percent discount.... and quite a good weather. Again, I recommend: it's one of the best times to visit Venice, between Carnival and Easter.

This week’s issue of Buongiorno Venezia talks of:


* Bits and bytes on vaporettos
* Heineken Jammin’ Festival silent
* Nicked for nabbing nappies
* The seven day work week hits the Lido
* It’s all downhill at the Boat Show?

The REMINDER:
* 2009, the year of Futurism, with shows throughout Italy
* Art shows in Italy - Calendar of current events (updated)

one of the best times

Monday, March 2nd, 2009

A quiet and nearly inexpensive (or much less expensive) city, no queues and no hussles.One of the best times to visit Venice, between Carnival and Easter.

This week’s issue of Buongiorno Venezia talks of:


* Coca-Cola: no longer the pause that refreshes?
* Luxury’s nod to family values
* It pays to be historically correct
* D&G: too callous for the opera?

The REMINDER:
* 2009, the year of Futurism, with shows throughout Italy
* Art shows in Italy - Calendar of current events (updated)
* The strikes calendar (updated)
* Lying at the movies
DINING. Suggested restaurants
