Drinking Coffee Elsewhere
Venice Dreaming
San Marcoready to emerge
from the morning mist
Scents of Coffee the hissing of a steamed-up espresso maker,
the comforting noise
of a spoon laid on a saucer,
stimulating olfactory senses
and then the collective sighof Java addicts around San Marco,
savouring that first sip of black gold

Do you have the name of the paper shop referred to in the sign?
When I was in Venice last October, I "discovered" this store. I highly recommend it, if you are interested in handmade paper, marbled paper or handmade books.
I love the poetry on your comment form - on a side-note :)
And these photos are amazing, dreamy! I was sort of feeling sorry for you when you mentioned your long train journey ahead, but now I don't ! Serves you right, going to Venice ;) Have a great trip!!
Traitor!
How can you even think of it?
I guess one can become bored with Vienna...too much of a good thing?
I immediately recognised the spires of San Marco. Would love to be sipping a coffee in that wonderful square.
You make me wish for the taste of a rich delicious cup of coffee today.
Today we had breakfast in a local coffee shop.
Coffee....not so good!
My mouth was so ready, what a disappointment.
Beautiful blues ... oh I miss Venice.
you made me dream... :)
I am not a coffee drinker, but when I go to Vienna, I think I will become one. ;-)
