Vicenza back to Verona 

8 Jul

As usual the first part of the trip getting out of the city was busy with traffic and lights. We were slowed by a flat tire on our riding buddies bike also. However once off the busy roads it was again quiet and scenic through smaller centres and vineyards. We rode through the Soave area and town, another castello and walled city there.

For our evening entertainment we attended the opera La Traviata by Verdi at the Verona roman amphitheatre. It was a memorable experience, very enjoyable.

You’ve got to love Italy. The local wine for 3 euros a bottle.
