Murano & Burano

Today was an early day because we had a lot planned!

We were going to visit the islands of Murano and Burano together with mama Sue & Shawna!

Around 10 AM they arrived at our hotel because the place to take the boat to the islands was only a 10 minute walk from our hotel.

The first island we arrived at was Murano. This island is known for its glass making. Everywhere you go there are shops where they each have their own artist making glass.

It was amazing to see all those gorgeous creations: jewelry, chinese, all kinds of art pieces,… you name it, they have it for sure! Too much to chose from!

We spent a long time strolling around the streets and going into shops. It was so mesmerizing it’s hard to leave. But leaving is exactly what we had to do if we wanted to make it to Burano in time to spend some time there as well.

Burano is known for its colorful houses and it’s also where they make lace.

I’m from Belgium and in Bruges is also where the lace has its origin so mom & I already knew a bit about it of course but here in Burano it’s a whole different kind! Was really beautiful to see all the fabrics being made.

Unfortunately this was also my final day being able to spend time with mama Sue & Shawna because they’re leaving to Rome in the morning for 2 days while mom & I are going back home when they get back…

I had such an amazing time with my dearest mama Sue and getting to meet her friend Shawna😘💜
