Spent most of the day shopping/looking around Venice after our Murano glass blowing demo. Ho hum!!! It was soooo hot mid 30s and 93% humidity. Then it was onto the water taxi again to go to Burano a fishing village for late lunch/early dinner. By the time we got there it was 3.30pm and most of us I think would rather have gone back to our hotel for a cool shower. However, the lunch was very nice - risotto, followed by grilled sea bass and salad, followed by fried calamari and prawns, then fresh fruit, biscotti and almond brittle. By this time it was 5.45 and everyone was hot, tired and grumpy and glad to be going back to the hotel for a cold shower and a cold beer.
The next day was spent on the bus with stops at Verona to see the home of Romeo and Juliette and the famous balcony and onto Milan for a walking tour. We finally reached our hotel at Lake Magiorre. It is really picturesque and our hotel is quite amazing. We are lucky enough to have a room overlooking the lake.
Today we are having a rest day and not joining the others on any of their tours. Mel went for a swim in the hotel pool while I went for a walk along the shore of the lake. We have just finished our lunch at a small cafe beside the lake and now we are both going to go for a swim and rest before heading out for dinner tonight.
