I know it has been a while since I have posted new pictures, that is mainly because it was winter and we really haven't been anywhere. Spring is slowly arriving as did some special visitors from the U.S., so we have been out and about and I thought I would share some pictures with my DIS friends.

Here is a shot of the old city wall that surrounded the city.

A shot of the arena.

Romeo and Juliet's balcony and courtyard.

A statue of Juliet. In the background you can see notes that were left by current day lovers declaring their love.

Graffiti on the courtyard walls left by current day lovers. There is gum stuck to the wall amongst the graffiti where people have left their messages as well.

A statue of Dante in Dante's square.

The Bell Tower as seen from the back of Dante's square.

Some of the many bells in the tower. (There were over 300+ stairs to reach the top).

Beautiful! I am an Army brat, but my parents lived in Italy/Spain and Paris when I was a toddler and I don' t remember :-P I remember plenty of Germany and Colorado Springs though! LOL I wish I could go back and play tourist. The pictures you posted are gorgeous! Thanks
 

Beautiful pictures! The woman I work with is in Italy this week. Now I feel like I've been there too :cool:
 
You are so lucky to be living so close to these things! And by that I mean all of Europe! There is nothing like it here in the US. I love the pictures from the top of the bell tower, so classical Italy.
