¡Viva Italia!

June-July 2015

With friends ending their year stay in Verona, Jenny and I decided to take advantage of their hospitality and pay them a visit. Three weeks in Italy! We spent a few days in Verona on several legs of our travels, and Verona soon became our favorite city. Our friend's apartment building was built in the 16th century! History is everywhere. After a few days there we headed north into the Italian/Austrian Alps. Backpacked, camped and visited a few towns. Then back to Verona before taking the train to visit three towns: Padova, Venezia, and Vicenza. Then... back to Verona for a few days before flying to Chicago. Each town has its own unique charms. And the food! And the wine!! Oh my!!!
