Verona

 I arrived in Verona in the afternoon on Saturday .  Took a cab to my hotel but he dropped me off 2 blocks from hotel so I had to walk there with my luggage.  Hotel is in a nice location near central plaza.  After dropping my stuff and cleaning up after the long flight I headed out to explore.  Because I was tired from the trip I chose to take the hop on hop off bus to get my bearings and see where I might want to explore Sunday.  After the tours (there were 2 routes and I did both) I stopped for some bruschetta and by then it was 8pm and I was excited to sleep.   

Got up Sunday am, showered and embarked on a 5 mile walk around town. I saw Juliet’s balcony (Giulieta) a duomo, coliseum,shopping, the river and bridges.  It was a nice walk.  Stopped for a small gelato and then caught a cab to the airport to meet Missy.    Her plane was yet again delayed but she is finally arriving in Verona.  More tomorrow!!
