Grappa
2 weeks ago we visited to Bassano del Grappa, which is a beautiful city in northern Italy, where they make Grappa. It is a small town and they have a grappa museum.

Toward the end of the tour, you cross over the Bridge of Sighs (so named because the condemned prisoners got their last glimpse of the outside when they crossed over it) into the former prison.
