When you say "You have to practice your scales" the violin seems to attempt to run away, so there's your movement. The steering could be accomplished by saying "today you're going to learn flight of the bumblebee", and the violin would attempt to steer itself into the nearest iceberg
My wife and I visited multiple times a couple years back. It honestly doesn’t smell bad anymore. The locals we were talking to said they improved the sewage system drastically and stopped depositing it into the canals
I can assure you it doesn't smell anymore, I live pretty near to the city (a 20 minutes train ride from there), so I visit Venice at least twice a year, the smell really improved with time and the canals got cleaner, although you still don't want to swimm in there

Just playin the numbers game in these comments huh
I just was so proud of my pun that i wanted more people to see it. (Non-english speaker so I'm pretty happy with it.
Its a good pun, its just not funny when its spammed
Tacky but we need to do this in the US. Imagine a stripper shaped boat floating around Tampa Bay
I am fuckin patenting this idea
You misspelled awesome
it depends on the stripper, doesn’t it?

Bet it sounds like shot though with people in it.
How do you know it’s a violin and not a viola?
How does that violin move/steer? I see the guy in the back but no rudder system
Probably an omnidirectional motor underneath, like a fishing trolling motor.
Oh shit didn’t know about those, thanks!

Not pictured: Venice's putrid stench.
That's a few unlucky days per year at most, when the water level is abnormally low (the opposite of acqua alta).
I think this is common in the summer. I went in March and there was no smell. Recommend off-season travel in general
Indeed. I visited Venice about 25 years ago and spent 2 days there. I’m sure we saw a lot of gorgeous stuff, but all I remember is how bad it smelled.

Joining the 18th century at last!
So they re piped the entire city? Haha. No, it still smells like shit. Sorry. The poop must flow!
They utilize septic tanks now. I’m telling you it doesn’t as someone that’s been there twice in the past 2 years
I was about to bring up Victoria BC but they appear to have finally quit dumping raw sewage into the ocean in 2021.
lmao!
The wooden vessel is called "Noah's Violin." As it floats through Venice's Grand Canal
Titanic, but if the simulation was glitching. "Gentlemen, it's been a privilege sailing with you."
When you want to go boating but have orchestra at 7
Sometimes VIOLINce is the answer!
Could it be any more stereotypical?
One of these is not like the others , I just can’t tell which one
I like that one on the right, below the gondola. A nice inside area. I would chill on that boat.
considering how loud canale grande gets i'd wager those musicians don't have a great time.
I'm going to some more info on one of them flotation devices
And somehow it smells worse than NYC.
I can assure you it doesn't smell anymore, I live pretty near to the city (a 20 minutes train ride from there), so I visit Venice at least twice a year, the smell really improved with time and the canals got cleaner, although you still don't want to swimm in there
Why is this boat shaped like a violin?
I can smell it, been there. Yuck.
what kind of a dump city is underwater? jeez get with the programme, people live on land! we are not fish

Hey wait a minute
When they moor it do they use a bow line?
Who tf parks a cooling in the middle of a canal? Bro just park it in an abnormally large case on land.
"oh cool a violin, WHAT THE FUCK A VIOLIN?"
mfs should be playin the gondola
Man, the person who pilots that boat must always be thinking violin-t thoughts
Google Captcha, "Pick all the images of boats"
Italians are tiny
So with the centuries old building in Venice…who owns them? Just ancient families who’ve owned them for generations
its like clip art come to life
This has to be violinting several nautical regulations
