Today we have the tour of the islands booked. We meet our docent and the American couple, Richard and Louise and head off by waterbus to Torcello,
where we spend considerable time inside a 12th century church-this was a whole lot better than it sounds.
Then off to the island of Burrano
where we inspect a lace shop(this was as good as it sounds) and watch Senora Bruna doing her thing.
We have a booking at The Gatto Nero for lunch(thank you Barry Jones again) so we invite our new best friends along.
Uncomfortable moment as Louise starts telling us how Obama is the worst president they have ever had, but Richard quietens her down.I was waiting for her to tell us about the repressive gun laws of the US.
Then the three of us take the bus to Murano which is closing up for the day and we narrowly avoid a violent thunderstorm.
