In Fair Verona

---

This was just a stop off on our way through to Venice for New Years.

What WAS exciting about this place, though, was that it is the setting of several Shakespearean plays... including Romeo and Juliet. They say the play is based on a true story and there is a balcony that they say is Juliet's. It was quite cute. I bought a little gift for Jess here and got my own name embroided beautifully (and better yet for free) but an Aussie gal working at the shop next to the balcony.

Other than this, Verona had a few good shopping spots and a cool arena that had a huge star popping out of it for New Year. Next stop VENICE!!!

Statue of Juliet
Apparently it's good luck to rub her boob... the outer layer of the statue has been rubbed off on her right boob hahaha
