Break!

Yeah, as you may have noticed from my extended absence, I’m taking a break from upping new pics and whatnot. I’ve just started working recently, you see, and it’s taking up a considerable amount of my time and energy. Not to mention we’re in a particularly hectic period which will last for the next couple of months.

I will come back again some time in the future, when things have slowed down to a more moderate pace. Until then, work just has to take priority over what amounts to nothing more than a hobby.

Cheers!

Burano

Burano is a colorful island situated a short distance away from the main island of Venice. There’s actually a ferry route from Venice which connects to three smaller islands, one of them being Burano, and the other two are Murano and Torcello. Of the three, Burano is the more eye-catching one as you can see above. The houses there are very colorful and has a more village-like feel which contrasts sharply with the grand architecture you tend to see in Venice.

The Grand Canal

This is the Grand Canal, the largest canal in Venice and it cuts across the island in an inverted “S” shape. If you ever visit Venice, you have to traverse the Grand Canal at least once. I’d take a ferry over a gondola, though. The gondolas are more enjoyable when going through the waterways of Venice, in my opinion.
