Verona

Juliet's house. These are notes people leave for her.
Me and the traditional tourist pose for her (Note "traditional")

Our Winery and Verona Bridge

This past weekend we went on a three day adventure to Verona, Venezia (Italian for Venice) and Vicenza. It was a blast. Here are pictures of Verona. We toured the town because of its Roman history and its history with Taylor Swift's song "Romeo & Juliet," which later on William Shakespeare used as the setting for his preformance of "Romeo & Juliet." These are facts. Anyway, it was a beautiful city and the weather cooperated with us for once! We also had our first wine rendevous in Verona, where I tried the Montellino. It was a red wine with a high viscostity and bitter, dry kick to it. It was not too bad. I later tried a white wine called Moscato. It was AH-mazing. Its liquid candy. After Verona, we headed of to our destination of Venezia.
