Chris & Elaine's Viaggio a Verona 2015
Verona is our starting point for a little jaunt letting the train take the strain and spending few days in Vicenza, Padova, Mantova, Desenzano del Garda and finally Verona. We are on the trail of Palladian villas and frescos by Giotto and Mantegna but there will also be Roman ruins, the oldest botanical garden in the world, the largest lake in Italy and possibly a famous balcony! Chris is looking forward to Hellas Verona playing Lazio at the end of the trip as well as pizza and pasta and risotto but we may well find some slightly more unusual dishes on the menu too. Hoping the sun will be warm and the trains on time ... Viaggio a Verona here we come!
