Ngokoluvo lwam, i-Itali yelinye lawona mazwe athandanayo nehle eYurophu. Ndise-Itali ngaphezulu kwesinye kwaye ngalo lonke ixesha uyandimangalisa kwaye amangalisa ubuhle bayo obuqinisekileyo, iindawo ezingekho mthethweni, uyilo olumangalisayo.
Namhlanje ndingathanda ukwabelana ngovuyo lwam kuhambo lokuya kwiVenice Vhice, isiXeko esimangalisayo esisemagqabini emanzini.
Ngubani owatyelelayo iViki, ndiza kukucebisa, ngokungathandabuzekiyo iya kuhamba nge-Grand Channel. Ijelo ligubungela phantse wonke umzi kwaye, enyanisweni, ophambili kwisitrato sakhe esikhulu, ukuba unokubizwa njalo. Apha unokukhwela kwitram yomlambo, iteksi yeteksi okanye ihlawulwe ukujonga ubuhlobiso lwe-jiko oluhlala kwi-gondola, phantsi kwe-bastard yomgodi wamanzi. Kodwa kufuneka nje ukubangela ukonwaba kweyona nto iphambili kwezi zinto zingasentla, nangona kufanelekile!
Indawo yesibini engaqhelekanga enomtsalane eVenice, ekufuneka ityelelwe, yiSan Marco Square. Esi sisikwere esiphambili seSixeko, apho kuhlala kungabikho khenketho kuphela, kodwa abakhenkethi ngokwabo bayamnqumalisa abajikeleze isikwere kwaye basondla amajuba, abeke phezulu. Ngaphambili, ngexesha lamaXesha Aphakathi, kwathiwa loo ndawo: - I-Bazare. UNapoleon ngokwakhe wabiza indawo yentengiso ye "Yuroppe yaseYurophu". Ivela kule ndawo ukuba i-Cam Cam Canal ivela kwaye kulapha ekubeni eyona nto imbi kakhulu kwizakhiwo eziphakathi kwezezakhiwo ezihlanganisiweyo, kuquka ne-balica ye-St. Marko.
Ukuba kwindawo ekuhlaleni, ndabanjwa elunxwemeni lweSanti. Intle kwaye icocekile, ixhotywe ngokupheleleyo ngeambrela kunye neebhedi zelanga. Kwaye ndaye ndabethwa ndedwa, esuka entlabathini ekhwaza amanani amahle, njengakwi-St. Petersburg kwi-Emba. Ukuba uyazi, amagcisa aphuma rhoqo kwihlobo ukuba akha kwintlabathi kwaye apha kwi-Sunk yendawo, esebenze ubugcisa bokwenyani sentlabathi.
Kwaye ngokuqinisekileyo andikwazi ukukhankanya izimbovu ezinemibala, endingakwaziyo ukuhamba kwaye ndingazigcini, thenga. Ukususela kwi-winteice enexhala nje ngabakhenkethi, ngamanye amaxesha kwakukhangeleka ngathi abakhenkethi bangaphezulu kokuba abakhenkethi bangahlali ngokwabo ngokwabo, ngokwemvelo bathumela inyathelo ngalinye. Ezona zilwanyana zintle kwaye zixabiso eliphezulu, ezi ziimaski ze-carnival ezinobungozi, kodwa zazingafikeleli kum kwaye zazingafikeleli kum kwaye ndithathe umfanekiso ngokuchasene nemvelaphi yeemaski ezingakhange zenzeke, umthengisi wayechasene. Ewe, yimfesane, kunjalo, kodwa ndizuze ezinye izinto ezimnandi nezimibalabala ezinamabala kunye nazo zonke izihlobo nabahlobo bam ababandakanya iiglasi ezintle kwaye zixabisa kakhulu i-venetian glass.
