The Culprits

 
Here are the most beautiful olive trees over 500 years old that I couldn't resist photographing. However.............. 

Sergio in Venice

 
Sergio and his brother are famous mask makers-made masks for Eyes Wide Shut film and more! I have a beautiful large piece of art from his gallery! Wouldn't mind taking him home too!

More of Carnevale

 
More great masks. I am standing on the Accademia Bridge with hot mulled wine Jodi and I got just as we were on our way to the museum. A great way to start the afternoon on the Grand Canal! 

Me in Venice(could you tell?)

 
This mask was made by an 80 yr old Venetian woman.
