Letter 25: The city that flows
Hi Tim,
It seemed a while after we performed the choir of the school competition. Everyone just gradually forgot about it and move on, its how the time works on life, right?
After so many things happened, let's talk about the earth of the fallen empire, the country of love and romance, and the heaven of ancient architectures --- Italy.
Have you ever been to Venice? Many claimed that it was the most beautiful city they had ever seen. But in my opinion, perhaps not...but it was pretty marvelous.

My favorite building there is the "Ponte Rialto", "Ponte" means "Bridge" in Italian.
And this is the picture. Did I mentioned before that I love architecture? The Ponte Rialto wasn't looked like this yet back in the Renaissance in Italy. It was just a broken wooden bridge back then. I was very shocked when I knew this, and look at how beautiful it is! The beauty of the bridges is what people called it. I was admired by the work of Antonio da Ponte, the last designer of the bridge.
I'll try to introduce more beautiful work of the humanity of this world in the letter of the future, look forward to it!

Going on a romantic, marvelous tour of Italian architecture with our poet-and-tour-guide :D
ReplyDeleteBuzz,
ReplyDeleteDon't worry. I can read enough Spanish that I can understand your Italian, and I know enough about Italy to understand how easy it is to love Italy and its culture.
So, keep going!
I think that Frank's house is very beautiful, and I know that they have do a lot of work to make it even better, but I'm still not convinced about how "Italian" it really is. I think that you could find "country houses" like that all over Europe.
