More news from my favourite city, Venice....Bernd Weise, of the Amphicar Club Berlin, pilots his 1961 Amphicar down the Grand Canal,
past the Rialto bridge at rear, in Venice, May 28, 2009. The German-built amphibious car,
which uses a Triumph Herald engine, is capable of over 110 kph ( 70mph ) by road and 8 knots on water. Its driver needs a regular driving licence and a boat licence.

I would love to be in this car. Just imagine the shock on the faces of the people around when I decide to plonk my car into the water. Maybe some kind soul might jump in to try to rescue me. And then the surprise will turn to relief when they realize I'm not trying to kill myself.
