exper Posted August 20, 2010 Report Share Posted August 20, 2010 The GMT Master II went on a little trip this week and it found a little place called Venice, very much a tourist trap at times but there is just something beautiful and almost magical to the city at times. Thought I would share a few of my photos. Choose the #1 rated hotel on tripadvisor called Al Ponte Antico, it really is fantastic boutique hotel and the owner Mateo is a watch fan to boot, he has a 111, Sub and Seamaster amongst others... very much worth a visit if you haven't been - but be warned... its not a place you can really do on a budget! A Ventian institution but at 19euro's for a very average bellini... they might have invented it but a 2 course meal averaging 320 Euro's it doesnt seem worth it Finally some wristies, venice stylee! A much better meal with an amazing view at Lineadombra Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

exper Posted August 21, 2010 Author Report Share Posted August 21, 2010 LOL yeap, 100 Euro's for a 15 min ride is insane and 50 euro's flat rate taxi anywhere no matter how close or far... and especially the clothes shops about 30 euro mark-up on most items. Two times ? two different ladies ? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
