I think it's quite obvious by now that my blogging plans for my stay here in Italy were slightly too ambitious ;) Between my work here at SBI, spending time getting to know the students, and generally enjoying Italy, blogging keeps falling lower and lower on my to-do list. I did promise you all pictures, though. So pictures I will post. Feast your eyes:

What I see on a normal day |

In front of the Arena in Verona |

Inside the Arena |

Juliet's Balcony |

The plaque at Romeo's house (which isn't open to the public and thus was rather disappointing) |
|
One of the Sacile Arches (which looked suspiciously like really fancy crypts that happened to by outside) |
|
It's 424 steps to the top of that tower. And, let me tell you, when the bells start to toll while you're in it, it's scary
|
|
There are flowerboxes in all the windows and balconies |
|
Behold :) |
|
The Roman Theator (or Teatro Roma) |

Some of the ruins
In the ruins
Oh the views of Verona...bellisimo!
