I don't know what they're saying but the lady's dog is the same as mine except I have one size up from that. Like the theme of the photos Sonia.

Os da primeira foto conversam amenidades, da segunda contam uma baita fofoca da vizinha delas, o casal caminha apenas.

When we were in Italy in 2006, I saw many similar vignettes and I always wonder what people are talking about - especially if they are speaking in a language I don't know.

Também acho que o casal caminha apenas, as senhoras do meio falam talvez de suas famílias, na primeira a mulher conta seus problemas de saúde ao homem que não parece nada interessado (rs).
As fotos estão muito bonitas, essas ruazinhas de Veneza tem um charme...
Beijos.

Well, because they all are people "of a certain age", I think they are talking about Health Issues....! I LOVE these pictures, Sonia. I marvel at how talented your WHOLE Family is with The Camera, my dear....

And I am not surprised you are having some problems with Vista. There isn't one person I know who hasn't felt the same way....And it is interesting, I read that Microsoft is DROPPING the Vista name and the next upgrade will go back to being called 'Windows' something-or-other....! Maybe they will go back to a closer version of Windows while they are going back to the name, too! (lol)
LET'S HOPE SO!

Sónia

Um quotidiano tão simples que dói por ser tão longe e perto.
Pessoas acompanhadas e sós, as paredes abafam-nas e a liberdade é um paraíso perdido.

Fotos geniais, sem dúvida que cada um lerá com os olhos que tem.

Beijos

Beautiful street pictures highlighting the beautiful city and its citizens. I like the pink fence on the first picture, it's very appealing to me.

I love this post.

Oi, Sônia
Lugares maravilhosos, uma bela viagem.
A primeira foto acho que falam da vizinhança, o cãozinho é testemunha, rsrsrs.
A segunda, as meninas se cumprimentam e querem saber como estão passando a família de ambas.
A terceira, o lindo casal apenas caminha, para tomar o sol da manhã e tirar o mofo, rsrsrs.
Adorei a brincadeira, achei super interessante.
Bjs e obrigada pela gentil visita em meus espaços.

Olá Sonia
O diálogo é imprescindível na nossa vida, principalmente quando encontramos retorno e afinidades seja em qualquer que seja o assunto.
Suas fotos mostram esse lado cotidiano das pessoas. Como é bom ter alguém com quem conversar, nem que seja uma pequenininha e saudável "fofoca".
Por meu lado, estou aqui incomunicável com o mundo virtual por um problema sério causado em meu pc. Uma tempestade no último sábado deixou-me OF. Um raio caiu por perto de meu prédio e chegou até ao meu computador que estava ligado, que ficou com graves avarias e assim me encontro até hoje.
Aproveito então e...I speak with you.
Desejo um ótimo final de semana p/ você.
Bjs

Sonia, é interessante uma coisa. Quando vejo fotos assim, de transeuntes, de desconhecidos, fico pensando como seriam essas pessoas ao retornarem a suas casas, seus hábitos, seus afazeres, seus familiares.
Não é curioso, ou é mania minha?
Um beijo.
Adelino

In the first shot they are talking about the grandkids. In the second shot they are saying how long its been since they've seen each other. In the last shot they are wondering how they got a whole lawn planted on that window ledge :)

Love these shots! :)

I haven't been to Venice since I was 10 years old.

I love the photos here. Fernando did a great job on capturing the local people chatting and catching up.
