Hardy har, does anyone go to Venice not expecting to have to pay an exorbitant rate for everything? there are plenty of ignorant Italians stumping up too. If I wandered around the world worrying about how much stuff cost I think I'd probably be as unhappy as Darkwatch sounds. Maybe I could sit on the banks of the Grand Canal counting my money and wondering why I bothered coming to Venice.
You could always have walked the whole thing (since few actual gondola rides do the whole thing anyway), sure it's not the stereotypical thing to do, but the fun is with the company and you could have bought a nice bottle of champagne that evening for supper with the extra 60. I'm not advocating being a miser, I just like using my money on more practical things.
And Yes I'm a very unhappy person so much so that I can't kill myself.

I suppose it's a good thing I'm loaded and happy. Anywho I'm back in the UK now having flown back in.
I wouldn't fancy trying to get my rocks off in a gondola either. I love how you all think that honeymoons are about non-stop sex, consider the practicalities of this, consider that we lived together for 2 years before getting hitched and also consider that if it had been about non-stop sex I wouldn't be gunning away €60 to do it in a fetid lagoon with some leering Italian watching me!
Yeah we discussed that. At worst you could have cuddled, and get that out of the way to accelerate things later.
Also that gondalier probably has seen some very wrong things, unless you managed to install and then use a sex swing on his boat I doubt he'd have even noticed.
Also congrats on the wedding.
