Photos of Venice and Rome

by Rick D. Jolly

Overview

This is a companion book to “Italy, Egypt, Turkey, Oh My!” in the Alexander Co. Abroad series. A book filled with photos from Italy as we explored Venice and Rome, one of our first trips abroad after moving to the U.A.E. Our trip starts in Venice, known as the floating city and once home to Marco Polo and the infamous Casanova. Traveling by train, we arrive in Rome for an eye-opening experience of the ancient Italian capital. Exploring a top five bucket list destination is hard to describe and harder to document. The idea was to capture both world famous attractions and everyday life as it happened.
