I saw locks near the Ponte Vecchio. Becca said it was a symbolic custom for new couples to leave locks. Romantic, right? Check out backstory below.




Locks of love.

What a lovely custom!

Love that! I'm kinda surprised there's not more of them.... one of my favorite movies when I was a kid was "A Little Romance" - it stars Lawrence Olivier and Diane Lane when she was about 13 years old ! They do a traditional kiss under the "Bridge of sighs" - I had to see it when I was in Venice.

Ack! Just to be clear, Diane Lane and the little boy kiss -- NOT Lawrence Olivier. That would be sick.
