I lived in the Canary Islands for 6 years , buen dar ! Canary Island volcano: A new island in the making? An undersea volcano erupting just south of Spain's Canary Islands may be the beginnings of a new island, or an extension to an existing one. For some, it's a colourful spectacle - for others a major blow to their livelihood... |

Venezia
----------------------------------------3,000,000 tourists move through Venice each year. The flood starts during the spring and peaks in summer, then recedes during the cooler months, giving the local residents a little peace. True, the city, made up of 124 islands, 183 canals and 438 bridges, is radiant during the summer. (Just watch below.) But the “Queen of the Adriatic” takes on a different beauty in the winter, something that a tourist, who simply goes by FKY, captures in an artful video above. Enjoy, and if you want to know more about the architectural wonders of this 1500-year-old city, don’t miss How Venice Works How do the tides in the lagoon behave? How are the canals formed? And the embankments? What’s under the buildings?VENICE BACKSTAGE Around Venezia [Edit 1 times, last edit by Former Member at Dec 6, 2011 2:07:48 AM] |

In the "olden days," I often bought a Zagat book when visiting a new city. But now Google owns Zagat and all the information on their 30,000 restaurants is free. Download the app from the Google Play store here:
