Venice-Travis is for the Birds-Explained

Now for the explanation! Travis saw a man in the Piazza San Marco feeding the birds one day in Venice. So he bought some bird seed that he saw in a little store. That evening he and Carleigh went to the Piazza and fed the birds and had a blast! So the next morning he wanted to share that experience with us. We weren't sure about this bird thing, what if they pooped on us, what if they scratch our skin and we get a disease? I mean you have to think about these things? Don't you? Apparently not with Travis! So we joined in and enjoyed the fun filled adventure of Feeding the Birds as in Mary Poppins!


Mary Poppins:
Early each day to the steps of Saint Paul's
The little old bird woman comes
In her own special way to the people she call,
"Come, buy my bags full of crumbs;
Come feed the little birds,
Show them you care
And you'll be glad if you do
Their young ones are hungry
Their nests are so bare
All it takes is tuppence from you
Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag
Feed the birds," that's what she cries
While overhead, her birds fill the skies

All around the cathedral the saints and apostles
Look down as she sells her wares
Although you can't see it,
You know they are smiling
Each time someone shows that he cares

Though her words are simple and few
Listen, listen, she's calling to you
"Feed the birds, tuppence a bag
Tuppence, tuppence, tuppence a bag"

Now the first line says steps of Saint Paul's, we were near the steps to St Mark's! THANK YOU TRAVIS for the experience!
