Today has been a great day in Verona, we went to the Arena and missed taking the props down from NABUKO, but watched for awhile putting the props for LA TRAVIATA. It was a grand opera, last night, and a grand ancient theater. Then we went to the Castle Museum expecting rooms of a castle. It was that and much more. A wonderful art collection 13th and 14th Century. Many Madonna and Child paintings. I loved the variety of expression and poses of the mother and child. The one below I really liked, the mother happy and so is the child. The museum itself is in a 14th C. castle, that has been tastefully made accessible with views of Verona. The Adage River is very high.
To help the comfort level, the temp. has dropped into the 80's,

Did Rosie roll in something smelly?
I want to go to Verona someday, so keep good notes, as you usually do.
I love hearing about your travels. Everything is so old there! I guess stone preserves well; but it's pretty amazing the artwork is still around too, and didn't get destroyed or pillaged over the centuries.
Just watched a couple of youtube Delhi to Dublin videos-that must have been so fun! And if I'm counting correctly, there are enough very attractive guys for the Chhibber girls-just think of the lake parties!
