The Thursday Postcard Hunt this week is in search of Cable Cars and Gondolas , alas my hunt was fruitless despite knowing I have one somewhere but it has gone AWOL. Perhaps instead of travelling with the help of electric power I can bend the theme to water power and a gondola style carriage
Taking to the water with gondolas gently travelling down the Grand Canal past the Santa Maria della Salute
and a more romantic gondola view of the Rialto Bridge. As can be seen the card did not travel through the post unscathed although as a slight compensation it does have a very clear Venice cancel on the back.

I love your finds. The first one is really original. And Venice... always makes me dream!
I've not seen anything like that first water powered one before! I wonder what that man was finding so interesting?
The cliff railways is very interesting! Venice's cards are beautiful...
The impressive cliff railway has done well with "an absolutely accident free record". I was expecting at least one Venetian gondola, and you did not disappoint!
