Here We Go!

With all the ice and snow storms in Canada..who would have thought in April... all flights were delayed. The group arriving in Verona finally made it. We got together towards the end of the afternoon. They are here to get immersed in the Italian culture and to be inspired by the textile works that will be exhibited at Verona Tessile.

Having coffee at Duomo...yes outside in their courtyard.
(still one missing at that time)

We stopped for coffee at the Duomo Cafe...

entrance to Duomo cafe.

which is right across from the Duomo.

The Duomo today..look at that sky! Troppo bello.

Tonight, we had a huge italian dinner at one of the apartments. We talked about the itinerary and everyone is pumped!

Surprise!! One of our travellers had a birthday today! How great is it to celebrate that in Verona!

Happy Birthday, Suzanne!!

We are finally all together, ready to start this wonderful journey. There is lots planned for the next ten days.
