    Re: CG members photo album

    Well, in fact I missed the glass factories, because all of them close at 18:00 and I arrived there at 17:30. So I only had time to pay a visit to several class shops. However, such glass shops can also be found in Venice or Jesolo, so it wasn't something new. And BTW, the Murano glass works are pretty expensive (as one can see from the price tag from your picture).

    BTW, did you get a chance to ride on one of those gondolas ? Is such a thing available for tourists ( you know with the gondolier breaking into a song and such ?? )

    You mean whether gondolas are available for the tourists? Oh, I think tourists are the ones that take a ride on them and not the locals, because these are so expensive!

    As far as the gondolier breaking into a song goes - lol - well, I didn't hear any (and may be, it is better this way ) - but, if he can sing, he'd dent your pockets a lot more!

    Interesting. I thought that was the locals' means of transport

    Most people (tourists and locals) use the water-buses - powered boats that are a bit faster, carry more people, and cheaper in comparison.

    You can see one in the background here (behind the Gondola) -



    (Oh, yes - they are ugly too... )

    BTW, cheap is quite a relative word -- nothing in Venice is cheap.

    As far as I remember, 1 hour trip with a gondola, is like 100 euro. A full day ticket on all public transportation (bus, boat, etc.) cost 19,80 euro. One trip ticket is something like 6 euro I think (might be wrong though).

    Here is how gondolas look and how a public transportation boat looks.

    Back with new pictures. This time from the bootcamp organized by Microsoft for MVPs and MSPs (Microsoft Student Partners).

    Here is (from left to right), PadexArt, Ovidiucucu and me, standing in front of the hotel.


    Bellow is a picture of me practicing with a bow.


    And finally, we played some paintball. After winning two matches, my team lost the final.

    Oops. Sorry about that. I looked at that a few times, and my mind decided that it was wrong.
