Lisa was looking very romantic on the Rialto Bridge. Venice working its magic, Mark 💕

[@jamesmason8944]

And Mark seemed blissfully unaware. Hahaha. I just pointed that out to my wife. They make a good double act, very engaging.

[@LindenButters]

I agree that you look stunning Lisa. Both of you are radiant with happiness and Chico looks happy too. What a fab trip!

Remember u used 2 make a wee cone out of the bottom of a wafer. That could be a life-size Cornetto for Chiko!. Yous 2 look so happy and I am enjoying your travels. Tell Mark, they'll b NO chinese in Venice lol. Xx

[@denisepeters8551]

Great walk today. My Husband went when he was a kid and he said it was smelly.They have probably cleaned up the place. I think I would have gone on the gondola, had jam sarnies for a few days to make up for it lol😅 This whole journey has been great. If anybody else on You Tube says Benidorm I'm off 😅😅😅😅😅 Safe travels.

[@NorthernersonTour]

Yes! Thank you!❤️🐕

Lisa you looked beautiful on this visit. Your hair is stunning. Thanks both of you for entertaining me with your travels Xx

Glad you enjoyed it

[@myoung6204]

In spite of being 'told off' 😮 for a comment I made when you were here in NI, I've continued to follow your travels. I've just watched you in Venice. In our 55 years of marriage we've been to Venice a few times but your footage and info about the place was second to none. Thoroughly enjoyed that. 👏 👏

[@NorthernersonTour]

@@myoung6204 glad you enjoyed it we loved venice xxx

[@myoung6204]

@@NorthernersonTour On one of our trips to Italy we were in the hotel garden one day when all these guys in immaculate black suits and dripping in gold jewellery came in. We thought we'd been invaded by the mafia!! Then the women arrived. What fabulous clothes. Turned out they were a wedding party and they'd hired the hotel dining room for the reception. Well I'm no fashionista so we stayed put at our table under a tree. No way was I walking past all that style! Gorgeous. When they'd all gone in one of the waiters came over and presented me with a small posy from one of their tables. 💐 So lovely of him, I was so chuffed.

[@NorthernersonTour]

@@myoung6204 how lovely ❤️❤️❤️🐕

[@LifeistooshortCK]

Thanks for doing such a good job of showing us around Venice, it is definitely on our todo list. Glad to see you both and Chico having a great time. Looking forward to the next episode 🙂👍

thank you xx

[@lisahowson8474]

Buon appetito 🍕🍕

[@florence1395]

I’ve been to Venice several times, love it! Though you get inundated by Chinese with there phones on sticks & they literally invade the main island. As anyone who knows Venice it has about eight islands around it, some you can’t visit. It’s all by boats. And if you know Venice you will see how much the water levels have changed & got higher, last time I visited we met President Clinton’s friends! Yes I am fortunate to stay at the best places. As for smelling (Lisa says stinks) it only smells in some places, the bridges are quite cute!

[@NorthernersonTour]

wow you do get to stay in nice places

[@GillPreston-rj7dk]

Absolutely fab flog u looked so excited Lisa. Thanks for taking us around x

[@stuartboy6227]

Very nice place thank u both for a brilliant video

Absolutely beautiful place you do show us some lovely places 👌🇬🇧

Glad you enjoyed

[@Livingmybestlife01]

The last bridge you looked at is the Bridge of Sighs. The Bridge of Sighs (Italian: Ponte dei Sospiri, Venetian: Ponte de i Sospiri) is a bridge in Venice, Italy. The enclosed bridge is made of white limestone, has windows with stone bars, passes over the Rio di Palazzo, and connects the New Prison (Prigioni Nuove) to the interrogation rooms in the Doge's Palace. It was designed by Antonio Contino, whose uncle Antonio da Ponte designed the Rialto Bridge. It was built in 1600.[1] Wikipedia

[@NorthernersonTour]

yes we know know xx

[@malcolmditchburn2834]

If you go in local museum at other side of St. Marks (used to be Napoleans house) upstairs is a cafe, $3 coffee! Same view of square out of windows

[@NorthernersonTour]

wow didn’t know that

[@baljit4281]

The bridge at the end of your video is the bridge of sighs. I know how much you like your history.

[@NorthernersonTour]

it’s stunning

[@ericwotherspoon7339]

We have been to Venice 20 years ago and I like the way and safe parking your Motorhome with all the other park up Venice is a beautiful town when you and mark got a boat tips

[@NorthernersonTour]

[@NorthernersonTour]

🤣🤣🤣🐕

[@bindatek8801]

What can I say....Spectacular!! Keep the "price comments" going. It is good to know where the rip offs are, and you are doing a good service there. Most interesting day for us all!! Bless you both and take care!!

[@NorthernersonTour]

thank you had a few have a go at us on this one as sick of me mentioning the prices but it’s what we have always done xxx

[@lisahowson8474]

My mother was from Venice and it was great to see you both discovering it’s magic. We always go to Farini when we are there. It definitely has the best pizza slices and coffee. That side of the Rialto is the best side for bars and restaurants as it is more for the locals. I’ve sent you a little something for your next pizza slice🍕🍕

Thank you so much

[@karentoynton8948]

Enjoy your water taxi ride. If you go on one. It’s an odd feeling going around isn’t it. Some. Nice fish shops there. When we went we were on a cruise ship, that was taller than the buildings. In Venice, At least this time of year is better, in the summer the water well it’s a. A bit pongy. I hope you see the the cruise ships , you need to see then r believe them. Could you put some garlic in your plain oil.. I do like Venice, have been a couple of times. It’s lovely just to sit in st marks square for a while, the basilica there has lovely weddings held there. Lovely I hope you got to see some of the cruise ships, they look massive on the island and can only just get along the main part..

[@NorthernersonTour]

❤️🐕❤️🐕

[@Shelley-s3y]

Beautiful Venice. Glad you enjoyed your day there. Went when I was 11 with parents. 49 now and not been back. Your vlogs are inspiring me to make plans for a European tour. Look forward to your next adventure ❤

When I worked on the cruise ships, we had the biggest ship in the world at the time, The Grand Princess going through The Grand Canal, we did the Med for six months and we always overnighted in Venice. We even had an orchestra booked out on deck . Such happy memories and yes we always visited the Chinese restaurant , and yes we always got lost coming back on the water Taxis . Well worth a visit is the Morano Glass factory and not too expensive either

[@NorthernersonTour]

gutted we missed the factory think the have stopped cruises docking at venice now as waves causing to much damage

Excited to watch his, my husband and I went to Venice about 40 years ago, so hoping to recognise some sights x

Bellissimo xx

[@travellingveteran]

Great video guys, love it as always, especially the European travel videos, you need to change the settings on your GoPro to anti flicker, it's in the settings on the back screen, let me know if you have trouble and I'll help you out. 30.08 is the bridge of sighs that linked the old courthouse with the prison, and the prisoners used to sigh when they went over it. We went to Venice about 10 years ago and it was about 80 Euros then so the price hasn't changed much.

[@ianbooth369]

One of your best yet, love the end shot of the bridge of sighs 😊

What a lovely video of Venice, all your videos and vlogs are so enjoyable, I really enjoy watching them all. By the way, at 30.02 you are standing in front of the famous Bridge of Sighs which, I believe, Casanova walked through when he was taken to court. There is a copy of it in Oxford too. Please keep up the great work!!

I'm so glad that you were enchanted by Venice 😊. First time I visited was in February and the boardwalks were out, I was 9 months pregnant and a council worker held my hand right across St Marks Square. Second time was about 2010 during a heatwave with our 3 children, it was brilliant not a tourist in sight, we had Venice to ourselves for 3 days, ended up bankrupt after all the ice creams and bottles of water we bought 😂. Brilliant memories 😊

I ended you it's so beautiful seeing Venice once again through your eyes I made it around in one day so very trying but so well worth seeing what we did. We went before Christmas and came out of the Church and it was dusk, but I teared up as there were singers singing carols, it was so magical all the lights in the apartments & people looking out. The atmosphere was electric. And I was told the same it smells it doesn't! I loved it so much, So thank you for bring back wonderful memories ❤️ xxx😊
