Swimming In the Streets of Vence- Kennedi Mayes


The streets of Venice were flooded from seasonal high water November 11. Tourists were swimming in the water that was 59 inches higher than normal, and people were navigating the streets like it was normal.

I think this is interesting because we don’t live near that much water. I think it’d be cool to go visit a place that is surrounded by so much water. Just imagine taking a boat to school every morning!

  3. It's so interesting to see how other people live around the world. It's interesting to see that much water in the street and that people see it as not that big of a deal.
