Tour Venice before we arrive

So, you may be thinking I'm a little nuts, monomaniacal is how the hubs so lovingly put it.  But, this is my hobby! 

Anyway - I found the coolest little gadget, my gear-loving BIL (Brad, that's you) might enjoy this one. 
http://maps.veniceconnected.it/ - allows you to check out any area of Venice and just start walking around.

Want to see where we are staying and the surrounding neighborhood?  Just click that little link above, then select Ponte degli Scalzi and walk across the bridge by selecting the forward button, and voila - you're at the Hotel Boscolo Bellini (the salmon colored building straight ahead).  Keep walking and you can see the shops, restaraunts, and Banco de San Marco all around where we are staying. 

Hmmmm - how do I feel about the "Open No Stop" $3.00 spaghetti at that little tratorria, fabulous or kind of disgusting? Guess we'll find out!
