Venice is made up of many islands and travelling between them requires water transportation. Either you have your own boat or you take a water taxi or water bus. A water bus is about 10 USD and the taxi is abou
Our tour this morning is to Murano and Burano. Murano is the island where Murano glass comes from. After a 20 minute boat ride we arrive at Murano for a short glass blowing demo. It was even hotter in the demo as you can imagine, but the old guy dong the work was unbelievable! I tried to get a video of him making a horse, but I missed most of the beginning of it. Let’s just say that what I did get was about half of the demo and in the end he finished a horse. It was like magic before my eyes. I bought a necklace and earrings.
Next we took a boat to Burano (another island, see pic) this island is famous for the brightly colored houses. Each house is colored more brightly than the next.
In the evening we are towed out to sea by a tug boat (see pic). Took about an hour.
