Verona

We went to Verona on our way to the Lakes in Northern Italy. Northern Italy is beautiful and we have loved feeling the life of those who live on the land. The gardens, the chooks, and the rows of fruit trees remind us of the backyards of many who live in Adelaide including our own. It's a simple and honest existence and the land serves them well. The country side is beautiful with green hills, contrasting voliage, trees and mountains - just lovely.

We were lucky to get a good vehicle park in Verona which didn't leave us far to walk to capture the beauty of this city. Catching the CitySightSeeing Verona - Hop On Hop Off bus we had disposable ear phones with English translation as we moved around the city.


A beautiful view of Verona




 
It's a good way to see the city without getting lost and missing some of the highlights.

We saw a beautiful view of the city from the hilltop and enjoyed seeing some of the inner city 'old stone' buildings.   

These little cars always make me laugh ...

and they are just so practical
