Burano is the best place to find washing lines. We are thinking alike Debbie! But you have a bonus of a masked person!

  I go on a great photography workshop during Carnival and it includes a day on Burano with a group of masks. We wander around the island and they pose for us wherever we want.

      He’s a great guy – scary costume but absolutely charming. He and his wife are regulars at Carnival.

  Absolutely! Such a fun time to be in Venice. And colourful masks and Burano houses go well together!
