Day 37
Today we went on a boat to see glassblowing. The glassblower has a little bit of glass to start with on a metal stick and then he puts it into a hot fire and it heats up. He blows on the glass and it pops and goes bigger and bigger and bigger. First he made a little bowl then a shiny horse.
We went up a tower. From the top of the tower we could see the whole of Venice. I like Venice because we get to go on water. We have been on a lot of boats. It is just like a bus because you wait at a stop. It is rocking really hard because it is on water and there are waves. A boat comes along and you get on it. After that we went and got gelato, I got strawberry, Holly got berry and James got cream caramel.
We went out for dinner. We got Italian tapas. I got a huge fanta. I ate musssels, prawns, squid rings, fried potato and I tried octopus. It tasted like you would think an octopus tastes like. I liked it.
That horse is amazing, I bet Holly wanted Mum to buy it. Good on you for trying all that different seafood, I don't think I would be keen to try octupus.
ReplyDeleteYes Nana you are right, Holly did want to buy a horse but Mum said no.
ReplyDeleteWow that glass blowing is AMAZING. Glad to hear you are getting to try so many different kinds of gelato. Mike says have a great time ... His Mum is from Italy so he knows gelato very well!!
