Burano

Burano, the final of my island tour.  Some of these photos are from a previous trip.  Each year I usually have a theme, but more of that in another post.

Here is the largest piazza on the island.  The houses are brightly coloured so that during foggy weather the fishermen could find their way home.

Here is the leaning campanile, on clear days it can be seen from Venice.

Not all the houses are pristine.......

The reflections in the water are beautiful and that can be a theme in itself.

I came out via Fondamente Nova and thought I'd go home the other way round via Treporti and Punto Sabioni.  So here we are back on the boat heading to Treporti.  By now the light was fading & it was getting a bit misty, but the houses are still clearly visible.

At Treporti I had to change vaporetti to continue.  ACTV have reduced the boats to one an hour and I had to wait 40 minutes for the next one.  Fifteen minutes later at Punto Sabioni I had to change boats again and continue onto the Lido then San Marco.  Another change of boat got me back to Palanca at 7.30pm.  It had taken me 3 hours to get back, what a day!
