Baveno (2 nights)-Milan (2 nights) -Venice (day trip)
I spent two days in Milan, but my boss recommended Venice. Originally, Cinque Terre, which consists of five beautiful coastal villages, was recommended by a number of people, but in early May, it is still cold, so there are many sightseeing courses that you cannot walk to the beach. Stood up.
Venice wanted to go through a variety of travel-related programs, and I wanted to go there at least once. From my mother, who traveled around the world by package or backpacking trip, I heard that Venice is one of the most romantic places in the world.
So I decided to go to Venice and quit the train ticket the day before. If you book in advance, you get 50 euros per person per adult. Luckily, children were half the price of adults and English tickets were not difficult to purchase.
Both of our couples liked or did not like to make a trip beforehand, and we decided to find out on the train, and we ate breakfast with a Korean meal carefully prepared by the guest house president early in the morning.
The weather was nice, so I headed back to Milan Central Station. The tram that runs through the city center is in Paris and has been in Jerusalem, but Milan's tram has its own antique character.
We boarded the train at the old Milan Central Station, with a large apple sculpture in front of it.
Children who have never taken a train in Korea were happy to walk along an endlessly long train looking for our designated spaces and seats.
My couple started busy searching where to go in Venice on the train, and the children twisted their bodies because they couldn't see the window. In front of the children who asked when they arrived every 10 minutes, they eventually gave up searching and talked with the children. The train was very comfortable and the ride was good. When I got out of history, I came out of history and looked like a canal in Venice's historic port city, the city of water.
We cut off a full-day water bus (Vaporetto) ticket for 20 euros per person and headed to Murano Island, just a short distance from Venice. IU variegated one Burano island made famous by MTV Location is the path at one time or the wind takes times and we had to go to come close to Murano seomman.
Vaporetto Tickets
In order to make full use of the Vaporetto all-day pass, I decided to go to Murano Island because it was only on Venice Main Island.
The road to Murano Island, famous for its glass craft, was very beautiful and calm. The view of the Venetian village, seen from the boat with the cool breeze, seemed peaceful as a picture. The buildings and alleys that floated on the water, which were only seen on television, were actually strange and strange.
The children shook their hands to water taxis passing by the canal and other tourists sitting in the gondola on a fast-moving Vaporetto water bus through the wind. The friendly tourists smiled and waved their hands at the children who were excited and their arms fell out.
10 minutes by Vaporetto, we arrived at Murano Island.
The buildings of Murano were monotonous, old and modest. On the ground floor of both buildings, across the canal, there were a wide variety of glassware shops and restaurants. I went to the museum where I could witness the process of making glass crafts, but the children picked up the branches in the courtyard in front of the museum and were busy finding lizards, and because the museum wasn't even interested in the glass museum, they passed the museum schedule lightly.
Visiting glass shops in the shops, they bought their own 5 euro necklace for their souvenirs and ate gelatos here.
As they said they bought necklaces, the children went from shop to shop looking for glass pieces of various sizes and colors embodying animals, flowers, birds, insects, characters, symbols, and patterns.
There's a guy walking down the street playing a strange instrument
I paused.
Still wondering what the identity of that instrument is.
After a long stroll along the canal, the shops sat near a building that looked like a lighthouse. Next to the dock was a long flock of trains waiting for a water bus to go to another island.
We had to go back to Milan by evening train, so we had no time to explore the other islands, so we hurried aboard the water bus to St. Mark's Square, the center of Venice's main island. Looking back, Murano was quieter and more rustic than the Venetian main island. I was driven to Venice's main island just in time for lunch at Murano, but I was disappointed that it would have been nice to have had a meal at Murano, which was quiet and calm.
The kids enjoyed the calm and elegant view of the ship from their boats on the cold Venetian islands, whilst chilling on the outside of the boat, where the fast-paced water bus was the most fun.
Arriving at St. Mark's Square in the center of Venice, as in Milan's Duomo Square, there were many tourists from all over the world who had no footsteps.
Here and there, Korean group tourists were wearing earphones and listening to the guide's explanation.
The Byzantine Basilica di San Marco is beautifully decorated with paintings and sculptures, with colorful gold ornaments, making it look softer, more luxurious and elegant than the Milan Cathedral. The golden background of the mosaic in the semicircle was shimmered in sunlight.
Seeing the paintings from afar and related to the Bible in other European cathedrals, they were intoxicated only by the splendor of the cathedral's exterior, not by looking closely at that time. It was a picture depicting.
Later, he realized that San Marco was Mark's disciple, Mark. His remains are said to be in the cathedral.
It seems as though I knew it, but I thought I should study hard if I had a chance to go to Rome later.
We alternated between those who waited in a long line to get inside the church and the tired children.
Instead, he wandered around the maze-like Venetian narrow alleys as if he had become an adventurer. A gondola with a voyeur who sings and paddles, but I wanted to ride, but it didn't look as romantic as I heard. The subsequent mechanical gondola didn't seem romantic, and he didn't want to ride the boat, paying 80 euros for 30 minutes to a smoking rower.
I crossed the waterway bridge, walked alleys, and visited the houses and buildings of Venice. I bought lined-up takeout pasta and sat down on the road to eat, and I walked and walked for a while with gelato as a dessert.
In fact, free travel with children is not easy. Visiting tourist spots by public transport requires a lot of walking, and there is a grievance in finding a compromise in choosing places, menus and programs because children and adults have different interests. Even if you find a compromise, it is not easy to satisfy everyone in your family.
Children can't stand a little hungry, sleepy, bored or hard, and can easily complain and irritate.
Even though I try to explain my situation and seek understanding, I can't stand my anger and see myself pushing down my children.
Every time I take these little children, I spend money with my money, I suffer with hardships, and the arrow of guilt, which blames them for what they are doing, is directed at me. In the end, the children will not remember, but they all blame our adults for greed.
Then find a nice place you didn't think of, try a healing food in a place you didn't expect, or experience an unexpected funny situation that turns your annoying heart into joy.
Traveling with children is not always exciting or happy. But I wonder how sad it would have been if I hadn't shared one person in my family at this moment.
After all, free travel is like life.
Travel is a series of challenges and choices, with a price and a responsibility. Walking steadily toward your destination may result in hunger and fatigue, frustration and disappointment in the face of unforeseen or totally different destinations, and sometimes unexpected gifts.
I travel through new encounters or face my bottom in an existing relationship, looking back at me and understanding others. Sometimes I find you and me in a new form.
In a strange space, we set the direction of large stems and choose and take care of small stems together.
Through hard and exhausting moments, joyful and happy moments and bodies, but the heart is full, lost and embarrassed, lost moments of wandering, helped and helped by others, and finally, we learn life together. And in it, our own story is made.
Even though the children are still young and can't remember the specific places and situations, the feelings of those moments will remain somewhere in the body. And if there is a mom and dad who didn't let go of their hands at any moment in the feeling, I think it's worth it even though I suffered and spent a lot of money.
Anyway, the story is kept in us ...
That's why it's a trip with kids who are going to regret it, but maybe they're preparing for travel again by returning to Eating Out mode for the next vacation.
Is this because of my desire to make a new story?
I don't know how long I can travel with my children, but as long as the opportunity arrives, my family will continue to leave.
