We arrived on February 13th, just in time for the kickoff of Carnevale on the 14th!
"Glissssenda", a show in San Marco. Barely moving their bodies they hovered/glided around (almost like they had segways underneath their robes) and did choreographed pieces. The fire is coming off the top of their tall, wire cone hats. Their finale was led zeppelin!
Enjoying some Bellini and confetti at sunset
These guys jogged through the city all day (I saw them more than once, you could also hear them coming with bells jingling on their outfits)
one of the many costume/mask shops
Saint Mark's
You can just barely see the Rialto bridge in the background
