Horse Prepared in 2 minutes

Murano Island is famous for the glassworks. Why are Murano's glassmakers so special? For one thing, long back, they were the only people in Europe who knew how to make a mirror. A visit to the island you would offer a free tourist demonstration from the glassblower. We saw a horse being made in just 2 minutes, and water jug in 5-10 minutes. We did some shopping there and then back to St.Mark's square. After finishing our lunch we watched a few more new styles of masks and then headed to Rialto.
