Surprise gift from ...

Venice, Italy ... a friend of mine, my ex-colleague, is currently working in Milan for 2 months (business trip). Her boyfriend was there too for 2 weeks ... such a lovely couple ... As usual, i 'accidentally' reminded him that there is some 'big event' coming on end of July ... luckily, he was smart enough to catch my hidden meaning ... So, this is one of the presents i received 'flying' all the way across Hindi Ocean to me ... ... a small cute (while some say scarry) masked doll. Every Venetians will wear these pucat and expression-less mask during Carnival of Venice.  pissst ... do you notice those eyes are blinking ... :P
