The Floating City has
been living up to its nickname after high tides and heavy rain flooded the
streets of Venice.
Seventy per cent of
central Venice was under water yesterday after rainfall and seas whipped up by
strong winds brought the Italian city's high tide mark to its sixth-highest
level since records began in 1872.
But tourists refused to let the weather dampen their spirits and many donned wellington boots and swimming costumes to make the most of the city's historic waterlogged squares.
