OMGoodness, we just came home from an amazing trip in Italy! This little bridge, "The Bridge of Sighs" in Venice was one of my favorite highlights from the entire trip. Click on the link to learn about the history behind this beautiful bridge. It was this history that made it one of the places I really wanted to visit and I was not disappointed!
I was very excited that we were able to walk over the bridge as well and then into the prison when we toured Doge's Palace
Today, the bridge is associated with a different legend, which tells that if a couple kisses on a sunset gondola ride under the bridge, they will be granted eternal love.
I had thought that our Gondolier was just teasing us when we went under the bridge, but I found out afterwards that he is right about the tradition, go figure!
Next week I will share more about this amazing trip that we took for our 30th Wedding Anniversary. I feel very blessed that we were able to do this. Of course, I loved Italy so much I am already saving and planning for a trip to a different region in 2026!
I hope you have a wonderful Weekend in your corner of the world!
We went to Venice on our honeymoon in 1989. We bought plane tickets and nothing else. Rented a car and traveled through seven countries in 14 days. It was amazing. Would love to go back as a REAL grown up!
Can’t wait to hear/see your trip!
