A Daily Photo Essay of My Journey

Shopping at the Murano Art Factory made me wish I had someone with better taste helping me. There were many beautiful pieces but I found myself afraid of buying something that would go quickly out of style. Above is the sign that greets you as you enter the factory grounds. It says, "If it doesn't have this sticker; It's not Murano Art." My favorite piece is the man in the lower left-hand photo with his arms stretched out. Based on its price, my taste is better than first thought(700,000 Bs or $350).
