In fair Verona...

Part deux of our weekend getaway leads us to all of the touristy things we were able to do in Verona!!
Beautiful Verona


You can't go to Italy and not have pizza!...three times...
The Gardino Giusti were absolutely stunning. They were a mass expanse of various greenery (shrubs and trees), with stone paths, fountains and lemon trees. There were originally designed as the backdrop for the Giusti palace at the end of the 15th Century.

Hard not to be happy in a place like this!

I would so recommend Verona to anyone travelling anywhere near Europe. A true Italian feel and isn't so touristy that you feel stressed out by everyone's presence.
