Italy Vacation Mini-Album

One day in Venice, Kathy came back from using the restroom at a restaurant, grabbed the camera, and disappeared again.  She was amused by this.  Initially perplexed, she stared at the sink wondering how to turn it on.  It didn't seem like the kind of place that would have automatic faucets, but she put her hands underneath...and nothing happened.  Hmmmm.  Then she noticed the pedal on the floor, that when stepped on, it turns on the faucet.  I guess that's an Italian solution to help with sanitary conditions.  You never have to touch anything with your hands -- slightly low-tech yet certainly effective.
