Italian gondola on top of the boat
There have got to be pigeons in Venice...at least there are in the movies
Italian Vehicle
Italian looking viney-house
Knockoff of Italian products :)
Another Italian Vehicle
House of the Italian Artist Giovanni Canaletto
Yet another Italian vehicle :)This area was so charming! I'm always so surprised by the random bodies of water that are strewn all throughout London. They add a very interesting element to the city. I was sad that Robert Browning's house had been torn down, since he and his wife definitely have connections to Italy. The people living in the area seemed like a strange mix of rich mafia members on one side and poor minorities on the other. The book said that historically it was home to a very posh yet eclectic group of famous Londoners. It seems a good place for them to live, since it is close to the West End yet it has a very secluded, residential feel to it. I enjoyed this walk probably more than any I've done thus far.
