This woman’s alpha-vibe smile expresses so much about how Venice visitors feel about being here. I went up to this 40ish blonde on the vaporetto and confessed (her husband standing right there and listening in) that I had shot video of her and that I was moved by her look of serenity. She said “thanks” and offered no protest about being captured, so to speak. I’m presuming that the HE community will take offense all the same and attempt to browbeat me for another video violation, and maybe even slap the woman around for going along with it.
