My Easter weekend in Venice!

This was the first time I visited Venice. It's so magical, I loved it! 

I arrived there on Friday in the morning and came back home yesterday in the evening. It wasn't much, but it was enough to visit the city and the most important sightseeings. 
The thing that impressed me a lot was the fascinating lagoon. People use boats and steamers to move from a place to an other. The waterbuses replace the traditional busese and all the canals replace the streets.
That is really special and unique.
I also visited Burano and Murano. These are two islands famous for the particular colorful houses(Burano) and for the glass manufacturing(Murano).
 I want to share with you the photos I took there.
