Yesterday we had a great day island hopping around the Venetian islands using the vaporretto water buses. We started off on a the smaller islands, firstly on Murano, it is always interesting to see how all everyday activities around Venice are carried out by boat: buses, taxis, ambulances tearing along with blue lights flashing and even funerals.
We then moved on to the beautifully colourful island of Burano with its leaning church steeple. It Had a great relaxed feel about it compared to Venice itself so we spent a while wandering along the canals and having lunch.
We then came back to Venice itself which although not as packed as the last time we were here was still pretty busy, the eight cruise ships in the harbour might have had something to do with this!
This morning we had a very easy cycle out to the airport, Sunday mornings are a great time to cycle through cities.
So the bikes are now checked in and it's all over for this s trip, (if we ever get to the end of this queue for passport control!)
