At the end of July, lovers of Venice will be able to "see it" virtually, thanks to the dynamics of Google!  They have sent out their crew with 33 lb cameras strapped to their backs...they walk the canals and side streets of Venice, capturing images for Google Street View.  Google usually sends out cars with the camera strapped to it, but that's obviously impossible to do in Venice!  Can't wait for the next 2 weeks to hurry by!
