I ended up buying the pig. Our tour guide Genny picked it up and delivered it the next day for us at our hotel she also took us to the glass Museum.

A unique event that will make Venice even more magical! \nHere below is the link to partecipate! \n\nhttps:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/e\/1FAIpQLSeIGAFtuedmw3C7BAIJe96GsuSSmS72YCryVN3vAOJE5ud_Uw\/viewform\nThere Will be a concert and a lot to celebrate! \n\nhttp:\/\/www.bigvocalorchestra.it\n\n#bocolo #veneziaunica\u2764\ufe0f\n#sanmarco\n#25aprile #rosebud #flashmob #venicehistory #veniceroses #ilbocolodisanmarco #roserosse\ud83c\udf39 #campaniledisanmarco \n#festa #patronodivenezia #celebration #bigvocalorchestra\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wanderwomanvenice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ei-cache\/17960060666449367_320.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"ig-img\" style=\"opacity: 0;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide ei-media-type-image\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide-inner\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-image=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-media-id=\"50\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-likes-count=\"0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-username=\"wanderwoman.venice\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-link=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/Cq7TE0LqHB2\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-caption=\"Treviso \u2665\ufe0f<br \/>\nSmall, quiet, unfairly overshadowed by the fame of nearby Venice, only some 30 kilometers away.

They do it by giving the traditional yellow flower: the Mimosas. This is the women\u2019s day flower in Italy. Giving mimosa flowers on March 8th is not considered a romantic gesture but one of solidarity: it expresses female solidarity. The Mimosa flower will often overgrow, and they can reach up to around 10 meters in height and can live for over 50 years. So what appears as a delicate and fragile plant is really very strong and powerful. It seems like a delicate flower, but in fact it is very resistant and can grow anywhere, even in the harshest of environments. Its bright yellow color and floral fragrance can change your mood. It is used in traditional herbal medicine for its calming and steadying properties. <br \/>\nIt is said that Teresa Mattei, one of Italy\u2019s first women in Italian politics, was responsible for making the mimosa the symbol of Women\u2019s Day in 1946. As a schoolgirl, Mattei was suspended from school for criticizing the anti-Semitic laws adopted by fascist Italy.  At 25 years old she became the youngest to be elected to the Constituent Assembly and later became national director of the Italian Women\u2019s Union. Men started giving the mimosa to their partners, friends, co-workers, and family, as well as to their significant others. They gave these yellow flowers to colleagues, mothers, and sisters. Indeed, the scent of mimosas fills the air. Nowadays, the celebration has evolved and now women also give mimosas to each other. Mimosas became in this way the traditional women\u2019s day flower in Italy. <br \/>\nHowever, women should be celebrated every single day. The road to equality is still long and winding.

They do it by giving the traditional yellow flower: the Mimosas. This is the women\u2019s day flower in Italy. Giving mimosa flowers on March 8th is not considered a romantic gesture but one of solidarity: it expresses female solidarity. The Mimosa flower will often overgrow, and they can reach up to around 10 meters in height and can live for over 50 years. So what appears as a delicate and fragile plant is really very strong and powerful. It seems like a delicate flower, but in fact it is very resistant and can grow anywhere, even in the harshest of environments. Its bright yellow color and floral fragrance can change your mood. It is used in traditional herbal medicine for its calming and steadying properties. \nIt is said that Teresa Mattei, one of Italy\u2019s first women in Italian politics, was responsible for making the mimosa the symbol of Women\u2019s Day in 1946. As a schoolgirl, Mattei was suspended from school for criticizing the anti-Semitic laws adopted by fascist Italy.  At 25 years old she became the youngest to be elected to the Constituent Assembly and later became national director of the Italian Women\u2019s Union. Men started giving the mimosa to their partners, friends, co-workers, and family, as well as to their significant others. They gave these yellow flowers to colleagues, mothers, and sisters. Indeed, the scent of mimosas fills the air. Nowadays, the celebration has evolved and now women also give mimosas to each other. Mimosas became in this way the traditional women\u2019s day flower in Italy. \nHowever, women should be celebrated every single day. The road to equality is still long and winding.

Believe it or not, Cipriani had staff whose sole job was to squeeze and pit the fruit by hand! \nHarry\u2019s popular speciality drink would soon become the \u2018Bellini\u2019, as Cipriani would name his newest creation after Italian Renaissance painter Giovanni Bellini.\n\n#bellini #cipriani #harrysbarvenice #harrysbar #peach #whitepeach #prosecco #1948 #pinkdrink #saintmarkssquare #iconicdrinks #historicalbar #veniceunexpected #venecia\ud83c\uddee\ud83c\uddf9 #venicedrinks\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wanderwomanvenice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ei-cache\/18188704216233457_320.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"ig-img\" style=\"opacity: 0;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide ei-media-type-image\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide-inner\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-image=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-media-id=\"7\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-likes-count=\"0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-username=\"wanderwoman.venice\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-link=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CkLRolcKvbl\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-caption=\"Wandering around Fortuny Palace...<br \/>\nBorn in Granada in 1871, Mariano Fortuny was himself <br \/>\rthe son of an artist and quickly found a place as a Spanish fashion designer who opened his couture house in 1906 and continued until 1946.

When under sail in severe sea and wind conditions she can reach 12 knots (22 km\/h). \nThe hull is painted black with two white stripes, harking back to the two gun decks of the ships while the deck planks are of teak wood and must be replaced every three years. Bow and stern are decorated with intricate ornaments; she has a life-size figurehead of Amerigo Vespucci. The stern gallery is accessible only through the Captain&#039;s saloon.\nThe standard crew of the Amerigo Vespucci is 16 officers, 70 non-commissioned officers and 190 sailors. In summer, when she embarks the midshipmen of the Accademia Navale, the crew totals some 450.\nOther than during World War II, the Amerigo Vespucci has been continually active. Most of her training cruises are in European waters, but she has also sailed to North and South America, and navigated the Pacific. In 2002, she undertook a voyage around the world. In 1960, Vespucci carried the Olympic torch from Piraeus to Syracuse for the Summer Olympics in Rome.\nWhile sailing the Mediterranean Sea in 1962, the American aircraft carrier USS Independence flashed the Amerigo Vespucci with the light signal asking: &quot;Who are you?&quot; The full-rigged ship answered: &quot;Training ship Amerigo Vespucci, Italian Navy.&quot; The Independence replied: &quot;You are the most beautiful ship in the world.&quot;\n\n#amerigovespucci #ship #navy #italianship #veniceunexpected #sailor #gold #blackandwhite #history #venicehistory #sanmarco #stmark #navesanmarco #italiannavy #italiannavy\ud83c\uddee\ud83c\uddf9\" rel=\"gallery_swypebox\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"fancybox\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/scontent-mxp2-1.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.29350-15\/310699467_181543057768580_6643699715401215548_n.webp?stp=dst-jpg&_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=Gw5amQL1NH0AX8b48x6&_nc_ht=scontent-mxp2-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=00_AfDpd-BdarL89Dhceq-I60SjI8B-XQ0u7SLYqpoXzTBGwA&oe=64735918\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.wanderwomanvenice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ei-cache\/17877998768753836_320.jpg'); background-size: cover; display: block;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img alt=\"Wandering around the Canal and the Sea ...\nIn 1925, the Regia Marina ordered two school ships to a design by General Lieutenant Francesco Rotundi of the Italian Navy Engineering Corps, inspired by the style of large late 18th century 74-cannon ships of the line.

Wanted by\u00a0Napoleon, as part of the\u00a01807\u00a0Marciana Area,\noriginally the trees and the floral species came from the park of the Villa Reale in Stra with very rare and unusual botanical choices.\n\n#secretgarden\n#gardensofvenice #flowers #trees #colors #veniceingreen #greenvenice #garden #royalgarden #specialplace #romanticvenice\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wanderwomanvenice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ei-cache\/17906310551615552_320.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"ig-img\" style=\"opacity: 0;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide ei-media-type-image\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide-inner\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-image=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-media-id=\"23\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-likes-count=\"0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-username=\"wanderwoman.venice\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-link=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CfOc_pZr5nk\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-caption=\"Wandering under a bridge ...<br \/>\n#venicebridges #pontedellacostituzione #calatrava #calatravabridge #veneziaunica\u2764\ufe0f #venicefromanotherpointofview #veniceinblue #sky #water #sansimeon\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-type=\"image\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\ttitle=\"Wandering under a bridge ...\n#venicebridges #pontedellacostituzione #calatrava #calatravabridge #veneziaunica\u2764\ufe0f #venicefromanotherpointofview #veniceinblue #sky #water #sansimeon\" rel=\"gallery_swypebox\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"fancybox\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/scontent-mxp2-1.cdninstagram.com\/v\/t51.29350-15\/289991280_800676801298760_5141028962344594709_n.webp?stp=dst-jpg&_nc_cat=111&ccb=1-7&_nc_sid=8ae9d6&_nc_ohc=LQNdG4Ceot8AX_w9LtW&_nc_ht=scontent-mxp2-1.cdninstagram.com&edm=ANo9K5cEAAAA&oh=00_AfBSL5CafHsjFFjZ2Grd_SVigX6HWE_8tcu3c6M3CrwuZw&oe=643C8A07\" style=\"background-image: url('https:\/\/www.wanderwomanvenice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ei-cache\/18277927879078938_320.jpg'); background-size: cover; display: block;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img alt=\"Wandering under a bridge ...\n#venicebridges #pontedellacostituzione #calatrava #calatravabridge #veneziaunica\u2764\ufe0f #venicefromanotherpointofview #veniceinblue #sky #water #sansimeon\" src=\"https:\/\/www.wanderwomanvenice.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/ei-cache\/18277927879078938_320.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"ig-img\" style=\"opacity: 0;\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"swiper-slide ei-media-type-image\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"slide-inner\">\n\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-image=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-media-id=\"24\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-likes-count=\"0\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-author-username=\"wanderwoman.venice\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-link=\"https:\/\/www.instagram.com\/p\/CfNDiu4reVU\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-caption=\"Amazing artist!
