Italy - Venice & Murano (The city of glass)


You buy a ticket - then you have to validate your ticket.
If you don't they will fine you! But they don't tell you that when you buy your ticket.
Kinda a silly system. Luckily I have friends who warned me!  





Our train


Venice is on an island~ But the train crosses a large bridge out to the island. 






Out from the station we get on a water taxi.



And cruise down the canals! 



Looking back at the train bridge.


The cemetery has its own island- accessible only by boat. 




Gas station


Murano Island - Known for there production of glass items.


Glass flowers









































Seafood pasta - it was amazing! 










I really wanted to bring some glass pieces back for some friends~ and then I realized that I couldn't actually afford that. LOL so instead I got myself a very small glass pitcher and paid way to much for it. Ill let my friends look at it instead. LOL 



Waiting on the water Taxi back to Venice.




I think its meant for me~ Sea Owl - my 2 fav things, water and owls! 




Venice 


Always a busy, busy place!
