We left at 8 am as usual. The journey to Venezia is 4 hours long. We must use a water taxi to be in Venezia. First, we went to the glass factory. Actually it’s more like home industry. They make products by blowing the glass and use the tools in conventional way. Maybe it’s the reason for the expensive price. They sell a mirror for 9,100 EUR! If I had that kind of mirror, I will stare at my mirror all the time. My mom bought me a half moon shaped necklace for 15 EUR. It looks white at first but then it turns yellow under the light.
After that we went to McDonalds for lunch. I dunno about this island. If you heard about McDonalds, then you’d think about the English speaking guys behind the counter, rite? Well, not in this city. It was so hard to explain to him what we wanted to order. Finished the lunch, we then went for a gondola ride. If you watched Boys Over Flowers drama, then you must be familiar with the scene where JanDi broke up with JunPyo and cried on the boat. That one was taken in Macau, the imitation of the original one in Venezia. I thought it’s gonna be romantic but it’s not. Perhaps it’s because our driver didn’t sing. Instead he chatted with another driver from the nearest boat. When we asked why, he said the he’d sing for a couple. The view was not interesting either. The scene from Madonna – Like a virgin MV was a lot better. It’s a very short journey and cost us 25 EUR per person. You may say that one time ride in your whole life is enough.
We didn’t have much time left for shopping after that. There were a lot of stores selling famous Italian designers like Gucci and Prada. Since there’s no discount, I didn’t even dare to step in. So don’t ask about Louis Vitton and Chanel, I never heard those two brands were on sale ever. I only went to Puma and bought shoes. It was nice but eventually I had to give it to my mom. Her shoes were not comfortable at all so in order to survive the two weeks journey, she had to wear mine.
Around 7 pm, we went to hotel and stayed the night there.
