In the morning we took a free boat ride to Murano Island to a glass factory. Saw them making very ornate chandeliers (the same chandeliers that were in our hotel and similar to those we would see throughout our trip). The "price" of the boat ride was to have them try to sell us expensive glass things. The pitch was very well designed. We started in a room with items from $200 - $5000 a piece. After we said no, we slowly moved to another room ($50-$100) and then to another room $15-$50. We didn't buy anything and were on our way to explore all the little shops on the island within a half an hour.
