verona trip

We have had two full days in Verona! People arrived while there was the Carnavale parade in the city. We made it to the apartment without getting hit with eggs!

arriving on friday
Friday was arrivals and there was a few mix ups! Suitcases lost, missing trains, and late flights but it all got settled and we had a fantastic lasagna dinner at one apartment all together.
