Like I said, you can find all sorts of things floating in the canals of Venice...one one of our tours we passed by a bottle with what appeared to be a message in it floating a ways out. BUT when we passed back by, it was a lot closer...
So of course... we had. to. have it!
Being architects, and therefore very creative and sometimes ingenious, we used Mark's portable tripod to fish it out of the water...we were gathering some spectators who undoubtedly thought we were retarded and it took us forever to get it out and of course everyone was hollering directions and trying to tell Mark the best technique in retrieving the bottle.
But finally we got it out and all was well. The message was something really stupid (of course) so we wrote our own message and threw it back. It was a very exciting highlight to the trip.
