  The lagoon fogs in for days at a time, which delays the airport and the lagoon boats and empties the city in a way nothing else does.

  A votive bridge of boats goes across the Grand Canal to the church for two days in late November and the city walks over it with candles. Venetian rather than visitors, and November's one fixture. Kilde ↗
