water polo in italy
Is it possible to get transportation to the Venice, Italy Marco Polo Airport at 3:30-4 am?
Our flight is at 6 am in mid-June. We’re trying to figure out where we can stay in Venice so that we can make our flight. The flight is an international one, so we have to be at the airport 2 hours early. If you have an idea, please let me know the transportation method (shuttle, water taxi, land taxi, etc.), where we can catch it, and the average cost. Thanks!
Here below is a list of companies that make taxi service to the airport of Venice. You may book at one of them.
Where to stay? there are so many hotels! I know a lot but I can’t say a name at the moment, anyway they are all expensive. Make your reservation as soon as possible. Mid-June is peak season.

Venice – Italy
Situated on the north side of Italy, and having a population of approximately 271,500, the city of Venice is considered as one of the most beautiful cities in Italy. Sometimes it is referred to as City of Water and sometimes as City of Light.
Geographically the city itself is divided into six divisions which are named as Cannaregio, Castello, Dosoduro, San Marco, San Polo and Santa Croce.
Inside Venice almost all the buildings are made on the bases of solid wood because of the sinking factor of Venice.
The climatic conditions are the same as expected in Italy. The city has moderate temperature ranges even during the peak seasons of winters and summers. The coldest months of the city starts from November and remains until the middle of February. The temperature variations are between 0 and -5 degrees. Relatively nights are much cooler. Venice receives most of the rainfall during this season. The peak seasons for summers are from June to August and the temperature ranges from 24 to 30 degrees.
Most of the transportation means inside Venice use to be boats but now these boats are replaced by water boats which are now the most common means of transportation for the people of Venice.
The Italian government has constructed a new airport in Venice named as Marco Polo International Airport and it has been named after the famous Marco Polo of Venice.
Cars cannot be used inside Venice as the city is full of water, although some reports suggest that Venice has stopped sinking, still people of Venice prefer these water buses for travelling. Also as there is water in the city so it is very dangerous to build roads for cars.
The city of Venice hosts many cultural festivals out of which most famous and highly anticipated is the Carnival of Venice. It comes one time in a year and is basically a dance and gathering of people. The people contributing in the carnival of Venice wear traditional masks.
Venice is considered a strong city regarding culture, music and entertainment. As the citys night life is a prominent one among the different citys of Italy. Venice basically is considered as the starting or birth place of music. Music composition and music publication started from Venice by a person named Ottaviano Petrucci. He started using the necessary equipment as soon it was invented, which afterwards became a well known musical organization which attracted most of the musicians from central Europe. Venice is also considered to be the inventor of many musical instruments.
Venice is basically a very complicated and compact city so there are not many parks and open grounds but as the city is very rich in history Venice has a number of museums which are mostly the destinations for tourists to visit. These museums display different areas and also focus on different eras of the years Venice experienced.
What ever the season, Venice will look stunning, spring, summer, autumn or winter. Enjoy yourselves, you may only get one chance!

Promised Land [CD-ROM] Queensryche’s follow-up to the double-platinum Empire is something of an acquired taste, but it’s well worth the effort. There’s considerable variety here; the heavy progressive-rock of “I Am I” and the ballad “Bridge” were hit singles, but there’s also the funk-inflected “Disconnected”, the edgy, spooky “Lady Jane”, and the piano-and-vocals “Someone Else?”. The title track is probably the stronge… |
