I always thought Italians were friendly [View all]

I just returned to this Country after spending hours boating the waterways in Venice Italy among
their ancient buildings. Seen lots of great sights, police & fire boats, grocery boats, other sightseer
boats, unique buildings the list goes on.

But what really made me mad was every time I said hi or waved at an Italian they just ignored me
or looked dumbfounded, never once did any of them acknowledge my presence.

I'd like to go back but I'll use a different travel agency next time instead of Google Earth!
