For a change we decided not to spent our vacation at some distant location. This time we opted to drive by car and stop on places we like. The biggest advantage was that I could pack all the latex I wanted :-)
I wanted to go back to Italy which I had visited last time only as a small girl. I haven’t been to Venice before so we chose to head there as our first stop.
The drive went smooth the only trouble being the lack of hotels on Austrian motorway. To be precise there are none. So we were driving thru small villages at 3 AM totally exhausted and searching for free and open hotel. It ended by waking the owner of B&B who let us stay.
We arrived to a pretty warm afternoon in Venice. We accommodated in a lovely hotel in room with a nice balcony above one of the canals.
The weather was almost too hot for my taste but on the other hand it gave the chance for very nice romantic evening walks :-)
For nearly all sightseeing walks I put on something more shiny or fashionable and used the opportunity for shooting. It was a pain in the ass to wear high heels all day long in such a warm weather I can tell you. But hey, all for my fans! ;-)
Masks are so typical for Venice. You can see them being sold on nearly every corner.
St Mark's Basilica
No idea how many pizzas I ate during the stay :-))) I brought back 2 kilos plus weight...
Street in Venice
After the three day stay we drove to west coast. We have found a lovely little town virtually untouched by foreign tourists. The houses were spread over the hills with lot of nature around. The architecture was also rather similar to Venice - charming houses, narrow streets. I immediately knew I didn’t want to move elsewhere, thus we booked the hotel room for all days they had it free.
We did many shootings there, it was so easy with such a beautiful surrounding. Here are little teasers but I will keep the best parts for a while ;-)
When the day came of our departure from the hotel we decided to move just a little along the coastline. The village was a much more quiet place with fabulous beaches, perfect for relaxing and bikini shots.
After three days we had to turn home tough. It was a wonderful vacation!
