The Most Colourful Island in VENICE | BURANO, Italy

  • Опубліковано 8 вер 2024
  • Burano is a very small island in the lagoon of Venice and it's said to be the most colourful and one of the most charming islands too. However, we visited during Easter and it was insanely packed so if you're planning to visit Burano we highly recommend avoiding going on a public holiday.
    You can get around Venice on foot or by water taxis/bus (vaporetto). The 24 hours begins from the time of redemption.

    The lunch spot that we stumbled across back on the main island of Venice had friendly staff and also Venetian cicchetti which are local "point and choose" finger foods.

    Peter, your perplexed enjoyment food face might be one of your better food faces… hopefully you’ll find something both scrumptious and bewildering in a future vid… would like to see that one again… looked like great exploring weather… too bad the line was 2.5 hrs!!!! I would have just jumped in the water and swam… for real… lines 🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴🥴…. Glad you guys found a peaceful spot at the end…. Hope the traveling is going well and stay safe guys!!! No worries on only 1 of 3 islands… big props for even making it to one.. and to answer your question, yes… been to Venice many many many times… Venice, Los Angeles 😁

      The fish flavor wasn't one that was familiar to me 😅 it was interesting yet very tasty.
      Italy has a lot of random "Don't do" laws and unfortunately in Venice one of those is don't swim in the canals 😅 but I'm sure you would have gotten there faster than our ferry hahahaha

    Sorry you guys were cold, but it is so nice to know you found good warming food to give you energy to go on.
    I heard Murano is wonderful. I used to buy crystals made in Murano, and the person who sold them to me always encouraged me to go, so hope you guys go back one day, and I hope we go too!
    Much love to you!

    I think I'd get bored there in about 2 days if I lived there. I'd be thinking, "Where is the park where I can play tennis, or a nice bike trail in the woods for riding my bike? Where can I fly my radio control airplane? Where are the theatres, and comedy clubs, and hobby shops, and indoor sports arenas?
