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).

nice one cilu and indeed a nice place !! I'm jealous of you now
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

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.
