This is sad. Having said that, this was bound to happen. I wouldn’t want to live in New Orleans either.

Whatever it costs you to go to Venice.

It will be all worth it. I can tell you.

Be prepared to go broke getting there. Or in debt.

Run up a credit card to the max even.

Cause at least you will have experienced Venice.

And will have that memory, experience.... forever.

When we approached Venice. And could see the Island of Venice in the distance.

I drew a breath in. In shock.

It was so majestic.

I don't think I will ever see anything as beautiful as Venice again in my whole life.

I'm very concerned about its future though.

So concerned...I'm going to research what they are doing about it sinking.

Go to Venice while you still can. Is my suggestion.

They are going to start controlling numbers of tourists going to Venice each day.

But from my reseach that's a good thing for Venice.

And it's residents.

The world, the travel industry... is treating Venice as Disneyland.

It so isn't.

Venice is irreplaceable.

And needs urgent protection.

So it appears Christian is predicting that Venice's precarious situation is gonna get alot worse.

Before it gets better.

Or maybe he's saying it's never gonna improve. Not sure.

Well theres been alot of talking, squabbling, stealing, protesting. But finally.... quite a few years ago now. The local government of Venice agreed to a solution.

One of many...to stop Venice flooding. And it's foundations continuing to be damaged.

And so Venice is getting a mile long barrier called Mose. So that when exceptionally high tides happen there...the long barrier called Mose, will be raised. Across the lagoon entrance.

Theoretically, saving Venice from flooding this way.

It is not going to be fully operational till 2022.

But the typical problems that continually plague Italy. Have been effecting this Barrier even happening. Or being finished

For a start.....alot of the money for the huge construction project was stolen.

And Venice's then Mayor, was arrested over it.

Then there's the worry ....that the Barrier to stop the flooding .... will actually work.

As there are signs so far are...that it is ineffective. To stop the water. The flooding.

Is Venice actually sinking?

Yes and no.

Parts of Venice is sinking. And other areas are not.

And

The problem is....When there is a flood. The water seeps into the old porous brick foundations that alot of the Venetian buildings there are built on.

And the water erodes them.

Badly.

The Mose Barrier is very similar to the Thames Barrier in London.

But the environmentalists are totally against the Mose Barrier in entirety. For a variety of reasons.

I noticed when in Venice ...seabirds added a particular beauty to the place.

And it's the seabirds the environmentalists want to protect.

Not just the marine life.

Because alot of concrete has to go down on the sea floor for the Mose Barrier.

And

The sea floor needs to be completely flattened.

Further ... because the whole flooding problem in Venice is caused by rising sea levels. Critics who claim the barrier will be useless.

Say so because of rising sea levels... and therefore they claim.... the barrier will have to be up almost all the time.

And this will cause problems with the lagoon and the Adriatic Sea.

Venice might want to ask New Orleans how that concrete barrier worked out for them during Hurricane Katrina.


Either Venice won’t recover or it will be gone. Call me a pessimist. I think it will disappear.

So the concrete Barrier in New Orleans didn’t work at all in Hurricane Katrina?

No this is bad.

Venice is doomed if Engineers don’t come up with something that works.

Effectively.

And soon.

3 feet of concrete in a town that is BELOW sea level is no match against Hurricanes and the flood waters they bring.

Being below sea level....Mmmm. All these factors make things impossible.

And water around Venice just seemed like one big marsh to me

Alexandra Grant. More lies? Did she forget she married another person 10 years ago... & is still married... UPDATE...

  I had a dream about Alexandra Grant. (Which in it's self is disturbing)   This is what I saw in the dream.   I SAW...   Alexandra Grant   is married. Not to Keanu Reeves.  T he marriage took place around 9/10 years ago on the  East coast of America.  (Not New York City)   I Saw She was in a  very close relationship with this  "Person" I See she was paid to do this... The person she is married to is of dubious character...   This person has been  "Away"  for quite a while...    (If you know what I mean)   This person is threatening to return..   She will...   To expose the marriage & other criminal behaviors  they both had a part in.    As I write this.   Keanu Reeves & his team.  Do not know of this.    Alexandra,  knows is still legally married. Has her head in the sand. Hoping it will go away...   STAY TUNED...    MORE TO COME...  

Morning everyone...
