Ah Venice, Of all the cities of the world to which I have been exposed, it is the most lovely. The Venetians are the most handsome people in Europe, raven haired, blue eyed and with noble long bridged noses, and are also remarkably friendly - even to Americans - and easy going. Crime seemed to be almost non-existent and I swear that you could leave you wallet on the curb while having dinner and retrieve it unmolested after the coffee. Seek out the music and instruments, but don't fail to spend some time lazily wandering the streets and canals or sipping a coffee in the Piazza San Marco. In this world of rough ugliness and McFastFood, it remains a wonderful, genteel and elegant city.

Not so much time, considering what a city it is, so I want to ask you about those things (besides the usual ones) that somebody belonging to this lutelist should unavoidably see/hear/smell/taste/sense. Thank you in advance for your guide! Saludos from Barcelona, Manolo Laguillo -- To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
