We caught the bus in to Verona, overshooting the centre a bit, then walked back from the station through the old town.
We bought a hat in the market in the main square, Piazza Erbe.
We toured the Galleria d'Arte Modern Achille Forte
We took the lift up Torre di Lamberti and admired the town from above. We waited for the bells to ring on the hour, but they were disappointing as they used a small set out of sight.
We had a vey nice lunch at a restaurant in Piazza Erbe.
We visited Juliette's house and Shraddhabha stood on the Juliet balcony.
We eventually found a way to get in to the Arena di Verona just before closing time, and marvelled at its beauty. Shraddhabha remembered where she sat in the rain watching a performance of Aida some years ago.
We failed to get in to the Centro Internazionale di Fotografia Scavi Scaglieri which had an exhibition of photos by Dorothea Lange (too late) and the Palazzo Mafei (ancient and modern art)(closed on Tuesdays)
We successfully caught a bus back and had a good night's sleep.
