This is an In Memoriam of sorts, as I heard via Karen at The Venice Experience that this floating Venetian greenmarket near campo San Barnaba closed up shop for good this past December. So sad—I still remember the unique experience of getting veggies from a boat when I first went to Venice, many many years ago (and repeated lots of times since then).

It is a lovely photo. I love all the beautiful colours of the fresh produce. It is sad when things close down.
ReplyDeleteNever saw anything like this. I'll bet the boat's owner never goes hungry.
ReplyDeleteWhat a shame. I think it is a great way to go shopping. Much better than a busy store. - Margy
ReplyDeleteInteresting. I am surprised more people don't do the same thing.
ReplyDeleteWhat a happy memory ~ I hate the thought that he isn't there.
ReplyDeleteVenice is changing!
A lovely market! I'm sorry to hear it's closing.
