Today was basically a rather relaxing day. We were still in Verona, Italy, but had no definitive plans for the day. We basically just walked around the city, looked into various shops and took some photos. Lunch today was at a self-service restaurant....it was rather interesting. Large amounts of salad fixings to make your own salad, and women behind counters cooking up different types of pastas with various sauces. Not a bad lunch, but again, relative to prices back in the U.S. it was rather expensive for what we had. Europe for many years was a bargain for Americans, but with the current exchange rate, everything is quite expensive. As the day went on, we just walked the streets of Verona and sat in the park area outside the Arena. It was a very hot day, which slowed us down a bit. After dinner, we again sat outside the Arena and watched all the crowds going into the Arena to see this evening's performance....The Barber of Seville. Eventually we headed back to the hotel for bed.
