I still love them. Gondola: the world renowned symbol of Venice. Count out the six sestiere, as depicted on the "ferro de prua" on the prow.

Gondola Gondola Gondola
For all that I adore Gondolas, and have taken probably close to a thousand pictures of them during a variety of visits to Venice.. other than taking a Traghetto across the Grand Canal (Why did the tourist take a Traghetto? To get to the other side) I have never had a Gondola ride. Is that so wrong?

These are wonderful...the vine covered bridge with reflection photo is simply captivating! the color the composition..great.
Beth...I love gondolas too....but have never had a ride in one either. I've taken the traghetto a few times...fun...funny!
I have had a few boat rides with Matteo a good friend. I met him & his wife Morena through Elisabetta. They've been friends since childhood.
Last year, when I went to Venice my niece came with me...and a good friend Barbara. When I wrote to tell him we were all coming he wrote back in his broken english....."holy shit...I need a bigger boat".
Wish you & I could meet in Venezia some day.....
