Alas, no Pdub


But here's a bunch of kids playing soccer against the wall of the parish church in Burano, an island in the Venetian lagoon that ostensibly specializes in lace-making (but most of the lace you find here and in Venice is actually machine-made in Taiwan).

We took a day trip out to the islands of Burano and Murano from Venice (we tried to go to Torcello, too, but the language barrier foiled us). Burano is just about the cutest place you could ever hope to go, and Murano, well, Murano has lots of glass shops.

I'll dig around and find some pictures of the islands and flesh out my story a little later.
