Via Palazzina 2 Salò, Lake Garda, Lombardy, Italy, 25087
Un seul mot pour décrire la région nord milanaise du point de vue d'un cycliste (le mien en l'occurence): DEGUEULASSE!!!! Un truc de fou, déja c'est super moche, en plus il y a des routes dans tous les sens sauf dans celui qui m'intéressais. Elles sont le plupart sur un axe Nord-Sud alors pour aller à l'Est à part les gros axes c pas évident... ...
Colombare, Lombardy, Italy sebjossiAfter visiting Padua, we found ourselves in the little city of Verona. This city was the setting for Shakespeare's most famous play: "Romeo and Giulietta." Although the Capulets and the Montagues are not real families, the play may have been based off of a real feud between the Dal Capello family and another family in the 13th century. The house...

Exploration of Italy:
A day trip to Verona was a fantastic way to spend a saturday. Elle, Alex, Dan, Sarah, Emma and I chose to have an early start and train to Verona for the day.
Even though the day was cloudy the city was still gorgeous. Which it should be considering its ' Little Roma'. I couldn't help wondering as we were...
So we went to Verona and Vincenza for class. We saw a lot of architecture. So much old stuff and new stuff alike. That's pretty much true throughout Europe though. We saw a lot of Scarpa including the Brion cememtery which he designed entirely and that was neat. We had a really yummy picnic outside. And yes, only architecture students would have...
Verona, Veneto, Italy allierossSo starts my Italy trip!! On Tuesday, we headed out at 7:30 am to Seriate, Italy. I don't really know what's there other than a Church by Mario Botta, but thats what we were going to see. So, we found the church, piled out of the van and walked around it for a while. It was pretty cool, the inside was painted gold, which sounds awful, but it was...
Vicenza, Veneto, Italy abbymckinley
... So after Carnival, we went back to the hotel, hung out for a little, and passed out early so we could wake up refreshed and ready for a new day. The continental breakfast was ahh-mazing, and we made some sandwiches to stuff in our bags before we left (GOTTA love free food and always take full advantage).
The bus stop to the train s...

Basilica di Sant'Anastasia
I attended an awesome concert tonight in a most beautiful setting. The Concert of Santa Lucia was in the Basilica of Santa Anastasia. The church is undergoing some renovation, most of it completed at this point. The result is spectacular...
What a great surprise crossing over into Piazza Dante, and finding that the statue of Dante Alighieri was surrounded by well crafted booths in the making of a Christkindl market. Nice display of all things from the SudTirol region , items of clearly high quality, somewhat pricey, not the normal market quality, though.
I walked through the ar...
Verona es serena, rodeada de colinas y atravesada por un rio, el Adigio, el segundo río más largo de Italia después del Po. La ciudad medieval está rodeada por una alta muralla, testigo de muchas batallas. Acá llegamos al hotel Accademia, en el centro mismo de la vieja ciudad. Un hotel con mucho estilo y de impecable atención. A pesar del calor,...
Verona, Veneto, Italy silarmasOn our last morning in Salsomaggiore Terme, we sadly said good-bye to the castle, had a last quick breakfast at the restaurant and set out in a taxi to get to the bottom of the hill. The ride seemed even longer to get to the bottom than it had to drive to top of the mountain, but finally we reached a pretty old, decrepit train station that would...
