I basically wore the plaid skirt or the black skinnies all week, but the skirt more often. I took only my peacoat, my black boots and the backpack. I definitely took <a href="http://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/minimal-packing-for-italy---please-help" rel="nofollow">too many tops</a> though and I didn't need my big scarf because it was so warm (I mostly wore my wool coat open too). </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446391 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 09:45:02 +0000 Astrid 1446391@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks everyone! </p> <p>@Eva, I think visiting in the winter is a good idea. And yes, the masks are only for Carnival, as far as I know.</p> <p>@Joy, it definitely still is a concern. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446352 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 04:43:41 +0000 Anonymous 1446352@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thank you so much for sharing your wonderful photos, Astrid. Venice is so unique. The last time we were there a big concern was the rising sea with global warming and that Venice, as it is now, could not exist many more years. Is that still a concern? The masks are beautiful. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446342 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 03:52:53 +0000 Beth Ann 1446342@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sigh.&nbsp; I would have loved to join you, Astrid!&nbsp; I'm so happy it was a successful trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446340 Tue, 24 Feb 2015 03:49:33 +0000 Beth Ann 1446340@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Sigh.&nbsp; I would have loved to join you, Astrid!&nbsp; I'm so happy it was a successful trip! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446256 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 23:20:16 +0000 E 1446256@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You have such a good eye! So many stunning photos.&nbsp;And how wonderful you got to interact with those manuscripts too! I've heard lots of negative things about Venice, but your report makes me want to visit sometime...in the winter (my family went on a daytrip there when I was around 12 in August which did not leave me with the fondest of memories, lol). Were the masked people just out for Carnivale? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446190 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 21:07:28 +0000 rachylou 1446190@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>You make me want to go! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1446187 Mon, 23 Feb 2015 20:56:00 +0000 Alassë 1446187@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>9, 11, and 15 are particularly striking.

I spent several weeks in Padova on the business trips and got to love this non-touristy city very much. Did you see the&nbsp;Cappella degli Scrovegni?&nbsp;<br />Vicenza was very beautiful too and I enjoyed just wondering along the streets.<br />I am glad your minimal packing worked well - and thanks for sharing the pictures! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1445686 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 22:22:21 +0000 Summer 1445686@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Astrid, these pictures are wonderful. &nbsp;Thank you so much for sharing.<br />I'm glad your travel wardrobe worked well for you, too. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1445666 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 21:31:08 +0000 Sal 1445666@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I also loved seeing these. &nbsp;I went when I was in my early 20s and loved it, but like Janet my pics are very average!! &nbsp;You did a great job capturing the essence of the place.</p> <p>I just read a Donna Leon thriller set in Venice, very light and easy to read, but it was atmospheric.</p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1445661 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 21:09:55 +0000 Janet 1445661@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful photos!

I love the script and the illuminations. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1445448 Sun, 22 Feb 2015 03:01:44 +0000 Suz 1445448@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Beautiful photos, Astrid!

Yes, they were originals. The oldest manuscript was from the 10th century I think, a lot were from 12th to 16th century. We were allowed to touch a few, with some we were only allowed to look. We were not allowed to touch the autograph of Michelangelo for example. In Germany pieces like this are usually kept in museums behind glass, in Italy they are still part of the libraries. With an official visit (field trip) you get to see a lot hands on... </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/some-veneto-pictures#post-1445321 Sat, 21 Feb 2015 20:02:57 +0000 K.M. 1445321@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Thanks for sharing these! I've never been there, but would love to go one day... I love the one with the manuscript. They let you touch them? Are they originals?
