Verona Opera
Italy
August 1st - 3rd 2008

My birthday present from Andrea was a
trip to Verona and the visit to the famous
Opera there. We saw the opera "Rigoletto"
from Verdi.

The room was situated in the middle of the city,
at the "Alla Galleria Bed & Breakfast".
The bed & breakfast only has 3 rooms, we had the "orange room".

Nice scenes in the streets of Verona

Next morning, Andrea and I did a city walking tour by ourselves

Suddenly, a group of cyclists drove through the city
