It's written on the stones

Museo lapidario Maffeiano

Osteria Sottoriva's warm corner

Can you feel the warmth of the little Osteria Sottoriva? Wine choice is written on the chalkboard, followed by a firm rule of the place: tables are to be shared. The last line is about service: it's slow!

Piazza Indipendenza

Unwell and blocked at home, couldn't go out to photograph the tree, now turned completely yellow. I am showing you another shot of that sunny day when I passed under the great Gingko tree and admired the sunlight cast on the ancient stones and bricks of a medieval palace on Piazza Indipendenza.

The Gingko

I took this pic a few weeks ago when the big Gingko tree's leaves were beginning to

turn yellow. I must go back to check it out because the yellow Gingko is quite impressive!

Ages

Excavation at Porta Leona, the Roman city layer below the actual street level.

My prosecco and the tourist's map

Piazza Dante, before lunch, a nice white wine with crisps. Next to us an english lady and her city map (which covers a huge glass of cappuccino and a plate of croissants).

Autumn colours

Introducing Borgo Venezia, a very interesting area of Verona, just a few minutes drive from city center. Autumn colours are beginning to show up in town.
