Its not about your choices, its about the chances you take, that makes the future.

Someone, maybe Macgayver, made a custom gondola.

EmmaJ made one:



Cheng, your stripped-shirted men could pass for gondoliers, stereotypical "french" characters, but yes, they look much like the pics you posted of british non-uniformed sailors.  the yellow-shirted ones I would use on a french ship, though, personally.

WOW! All this talk about gondoliers brings back memories of my only visit to Venetzia at age 16... fresh out of West Texas and awed by everything I saw in two months in northern Italia.

Yall please keep those gondoliers coming, okay?

I just booked a hotel in Venetzia because of this thread! It is totally yall's fault, Pgal!!!

PS: Keep up the great work guys!
After two decades of male toys (esp. Lego and PM) in our house, it is time to build something for us women!

Luis....the internal skeleton's clips for his arms are narrower than the normal wider cliky torsos but still wider than the slimmer female klicky in bathing suit....so you cant change arms for speedo dad unless you do some surgery on his 'ball & socket' shoulder joints  :) go get a speedo dad....

I hadn't noticed this! I thought the arms and arm clips were the same.
