6.5.18. Day 4 in Venice! Today we branched out to Murano and the colorful little island of Burano. We perused over-priced glass sculptures and trinkets, and finally settled on a side shop's collection of water glasses with rainbow leaves. On the way home, Dad and I stopped off at the St. Mark's tower to check out the view. We tried Aperol Spritz and Cichetti sandwiches for the first time, and we had our final dinner of the trip at Osteria ai Artisti. I introduced Mom and Dad to the Harvard tradition of limericks. Mine were:
Our Robin's the queen of exploring
Through meticulous plans and imploring
That we all leave the house
Trade our sweats for a blouse
And enjoy a sweet life that's not boring!
Our Dave, he might seem like he's shy
He's the apple of Jack Rabbit's eye
Want some facts? He's your bloke
Also great for a joke
When in trouble, there's no better guy!
