    Beautiful city of Verona

    September 4, 2019 in Italy ⋅ ☀️ 23 °C

    A day out to this beautiful city with marbled walk ways and cobbled streets, leading to Juliettes balcony. Walked up the 368 steps to take in the views from the Lambroti Bell tower.
    Enjoyed the fresco paintings, marbled floors and painted ceilings of the Bassilica de Santa Anastasia some of which have survived since the 15th century.
    Much needed break at La Tradision bar for Italian pastries and reviving cappuccino.
    More sight seeing across the Ponte Scaligero followed by Caffe al Teatro for our evening meal before going to my first Opera at the Roman Ampitheatre in Verona. Carmen - I was impressed with how much of the music I recognised and grateful they had big screens translating the story. We were sitting almost at the top on the stone steps but still had a great view and how the sound carried was amazing. A very special experience to tick off my bucket list.
