Day 5 - Verona, Italy


November 13, 2014
We were up bright and early for our train to Verona! We left the hotel around 7am and made it to Verona late because of flooding and train delays.


We had a cooking class scheduled and paid for that we missed because of the delay! So sad. We finally got the news it couldn’t be rescheduled so we went for a nice lunch instead. Wine, beer and risotto! Danielle had an entire walking tour set for us that included the Verona Arena (so cool), the river, a few piazzas and to Enotecca Oreste - it used to be a private chapel for the old archbishop. We stopped there for a glass of wine. We ended at Juliet’s balcony which would have been way cooler if it wasn’t created as a tourist trap. We rubbed her boob for good luck though!

 We had a couple more stops on the tour of Danielle including the bridge and river and an old church. We decided we were done early and switched our tickets to get back to the hotel.
 We got changed and Uber'd over to a beer bar (Lambiczoon) my friend had told me about. We sat down for dinner and I ordered a Cantillon on draft (Jason was way jealous)


We met the owner and he was so nice to us! He sent us an appetizer and dessert. We drank quite a bit of beer and ate some amazing burgers before heading back to the hotel to crash.
