Venice is a city in northern Italy. It has been known as the “Queen of the Adriatic”,
“City of Bridges”, and “The City of Light”. The city stretches across 117 small islands in the marshy Venetian Lagoon along the Adriatic Sea in northeast Italy.
Venice is world famous for its canals. It is built on an archipelago of 117 islands formed by about 150 canals in a shallow lagoon. The islands on which the city is built are connected by about 400 bridges. In the old centre, the canals serve the function of roads, and every form of transport is on water or on foot.
You can ride gondola there. It is the classical Venetian boat which nowadays is mostly used for tourists, or weddings, funerals, or other ceremonies. Now, most Venetians travel by motorised waterbuses which ply regular routes along the major canals and between the city’s islands. The city has many private boats. The only gondolas still in common use by Venetians are the Traghetti, foot passenger ferries crossing the Grand Canal at certain points without bridges.

Ginger is a type of tropical plant. It is typically used in a variety of cuisines around the world. It can also be used to add color and flair to gardens and landscapes. The most common type of ginger used in cooking today is Zingiber officinale.
As a root plant ginger can reach up to 4 feet high, with a stalk containing clusters of small, yellow flowers. When eaten, ginger has a spicy taste--though this dulls as the plant ages. Young ginger plants are typically moist and fleshy, and become drier and more fibrous as they age.
The root of the ginger plant is most often used in cooking. It can be grated, shredded, or even sliced over various items. It is a commonly used ingredient for baking, and is used regularly in cookies, cakes, pies, and other desserts. This plant can also be used as a complementary spice to meats, fish, or even pasta dishes.

The night air was getting chilly, so he took off his jacket and gave it to her. Jerry found out that the girl’s name was Siska and she was on her way home. After an hour drive, they arrived at her home. Jerry said goodnight and went home himself.
The next day, he remembered that Siska still had his jacket. He went to Siska’s house and knocked on the door. An old woman answered. Jerry told her about the ride he had given her daughter Siska, and he had to come back to get the jacket he had lent her. The old woman looked very confused.
