Murano & Burano

Yesterday we took a boat trip out to both Murano & Burano Islands. Murano is where the Venician glass is made (blown ) and Burano where the hand made lace is made. The lace is beautiful and to watch the ladies sit and do the very fine needle work was fascinating. I was in awe of their needle skills. All the houses an the islands (with lots of little canals) are painted different colours. We only had a short time on Burano so we took a second trip back today on the water bus.Læs mere
