Jun 11 (Verona)

IMG_3472We’ve now settled in the hilltops overlooking Verona. We sadly left Arona after having an awesome visit at the farm. Ash and I both said we’ll likely return there every year. The people that run the B&B are some of the best people I’ve ever met. I highly recommend it (www.incocco.com).

On the 8th, Ash and I made were lucky enough to be treated like VIPs at the Last Supper painting. We got up to the receptionist who pretty much was super rude to us but when we dropped the name, everyone stopped and apologized profusely and ushered a man from the back to take us in.  It was wild, people were moved out of the way and we were given a completely private tour of the painting and its history. All I could think about when looking at it was one of my best friends that always calls his dinner–> supper. Drives me mad. Anyways, will remember that forever. Definitely was special.

The drive to Verona was uneventful, we left at about 12:30 and arrived at the Verona Supercharger at about 2:45pm.  We charged and made our way up to the hill. The roads on the way there were super skinny and we’re avoiding using the car until we leave. The bus stops 3 min away from the house anyways.

We paid 27 EURO to go into the arena, and I think I’ve never been so ripped off in my life. It was 2 hallways filled with KISS band equipment. That’s it.  Oh yeah, Kiss is playing there tonight, the entire Verona city centre is KISS fans.

On Saturday we leave for Slovenia which I am really excited about, it’ll be a longer stop (5 days) and the location looks super serene. We’ve decided that we might actually go more west on this trip (towards France/Belgium/Netherlands) and cut out time from Scandinavia.  Maybe Brittany?  Anyone that has recommendations please post in the comments 🙂
