Carol Perkins: Adventures in Italy, Part 4 Read all of Carol's Adventures in Italy: Part 1 | Part 2 | Part 3 | Part 4 By Carol Perkins When we reached Venice, the city of canals, the only way to get to our hotel was by water taxi or a water bus. Because there are no vehicles allowed, walking down the narrow streets is the only option. The Grand Canal circles the city, but within the city are endless concrete bridges and steps leading to attractions. If a person cannot walk, he cannot function in Venice. Our hotel (Hotel Palazzo Vitturi) had once been a castle and was the perfect location. When I inquired about booking the room, I noticed there were no elevators but was guaranteed a first-floor room. First floor in Italy is the second floor in the states. When I looked at the climb, I sighed. Once I caught my breath and surveyed the "second floor," I realized we were lucky. Our room faced the Camp Santa Marie Formosa square (an old church area) filled with open-air restaurants and few tourists.
