Thursday, October 2
 |
Arrived at the Airbnb at 8pm. |
 |
Orange bed. |
 |
Looks clean. |
 |
Bathroom is the most important. Must be new. Good. |
 |
Small little backyard outside the room. |
 |
We left our bags at the front desk. We are going to explore Verona. |
 |
Meet Eliza and Francesco who attended to us. |
 |
Nice and clean. Quite new. We like new. |
 |
We are walking to Piazza Bra, the largest public square in Verona. |
 |
Passed by this eatery. |
 |
Saw the word gluten - free and a smile broke out. |
 |
This is part of ... |
 |
... The Verona charm. |
 |
We were looking for ... |
 |
... a cafe to have our breakfast. |
 |
Directly opposite ... |
 |
... is this castle. |
 |
Castlevecchio. |
 |
We crossed over ... |
 |
... to see what ... |
 |
... it's all about. |
 |
World War II |
 |
There is a museum ... |
 |
... but it was still early. |
 |
Not opened yet. |
 |
So we took some photos ... |
 |
... outside ... |
 |
... the museum. |
 |
Walking along ... |
 |
... the castle path. |
 |
This guy is some admiral in the military during the war. |
 |
Inside the castle. |
 |
Walking out of the castle. |
 |
Crossed the road ... |
 |
... to the other side. |
 |
View of castle. |
 |
We decided on this cafe here. |
 |
Menu is here. |
 |
Select a set. |
 |
Sit back and relax. |
 |
Waitress came to set the table. |
 |
Beside us. |
 |
Our cappuccino is here. |
 |
Perfect! |
 |
Our egg and bacon ... |
 |
... is served. |
 |
Don't be fooled ... |
 |
... the bacon is piled up high. |
 |
We enjoyed ... |
 |
... our breakfast. |
 |
Off we go. |
 |
We passed a ramen shop. |
 |
It was a nice day ... |
 |
... for a leisure walk. |
 |
We took photos ... |
 |
... here and ... |
 |
... there. |
 |
Look at this ... |
 |
... and these. |
 |
Mouth-watering ... |
 |
pizzas. |
 |
We were making ... |
 |
... our way to ... |
 |
Piazza Bra. Not this. |
 |
We are just snapping photos ... |
 |
... left and ... |
 |
... right. |
 |
Piazza Bra is the ... |
 |
... largest ... |
 |
... public square ... |
 |
... in Verona. |
 |
Ah. See the light. |
 |
We have arrived. |
 |
A stretch of cafes ... |
 |
... from one end to the next. |
 |
The Arena. Roman Amphitheatre. |
 |
This stretch ... |
 |
... is known as ... |
 |
... the Liston Promenade. |
 |
Liston refers to the long marble slabs on the pavement. |
 |
Strolling along the path. |
 |
The structure at the far end. Palazzo Barbieri. Town Hall. |
 |
The arena was built in the 1st century AD. |
 |
The strolling path ... |
 |
... is like never ending. |
 |
We are heading ... |
 |
... the arena. There is a queue of people waiting to go in. |
 |
It was really nice ... |
 |
... just ... |
 |
| ... observing... |
 |
... people. |
 |
Entrance door is now open. |
 |
Visitors are going in ... |
 |
... on an orderly manner. |
 |
This entrance is for VIPs. |
 |
This town is ... |
 |
| ... so cute ... |
 |
... and charming ... |
 |
... with all its unique ... |
 |
... cafes and restaurants. |
 |
This Arena was built before the Roman Colloseum. |
 |
About 40 years earlier. |
 |
We walked through ... |
 |
... the piazza ... |
 |
... and took ... |
 |
... many photos. |
 |
Get ready to see them all. |
 |
| House of Juliet |
 |
The Market Square. Piazza delle Erbe. |
 |
See the words : Sorry, Vegans! Haha. |
 |
Yup. Bata is in Verona. |
 |
| Juliet's House |
 |
That's the famous balcony. |
 |
Juliet's Wall |
 |
| The courtyard of Juliet's House. |
 |
Have to walk very carefully. |
 |
Touching the right breast of Juliet's statue is a tourist tradition that brings luck to finding love. |
 |
| This is Lincoln. Making a cheese and bacon bun for us. |
 |
FREE D? |
 |
By the way ... |
 |
... if you have not noticed ... |
 |
... Verona is all about ... |
 |
... balconies. |
 |
Check these out. |
 |
Lunch time. |
 |
Eateries are all ... |
 |
... packed with people. |
 |
More balconies. |
