un bello sabato a verona

ever since i watched letters to juliet i've wanted to go to verona.  thankfully, our two student teachers wanted to go and invited me along.  it was a beautiful, albeit cold, january saturday and the town was exactly as charming as i had suspected.

the beautiful main piazza - piazza dell'erbe



groping juliet for good luck in love and writing my name on the wall along with all the others. there were SO many names and messages written on the wall -- good thing R had an expo marker in his bag (only a teacher...)
view of the city from an overlook

another view -- would have been incredible at sunset

we wandered around all afternoon, stopped for some delicious veronese vino, and had a delicious meal before returning to trieste in time for the film festival kickoff party! 

un buon weekend, indeed.
