MURANO ISLE: BEAUTIFUL GLASS ART EVERYWHERE



Emme, Jerald, Maylena, Lenda, Helen, and I rode the train from Vicenza to Venice, followed by a 15-minute boat ride to the Murano Island (€16 for the day trip). The island was filled with shops, which sold various types of Murano glass--from earrings to bracelets, plates, and even vaces! For lunch, we ate at a pizzeria, where I tried their spaghetti. As we spent almost the whole afternoon from one shop to another, little did we know it was already nearly 6pm. Sadly, we did not get to visit the Lace Isle. Nevertheless, we enjoyed marveling at each uniquely-made glass masterpiece.
