2026 in Verona…a nice surprise….

This morning I went out to look for a bank. The first one with a money machine/ bancomat, was so complicated and possibly closed that I decided to look further.

So I walked on past the castellated Bridge and found another supermarket.  Then quite by chance I found a Chinese shop. Hurray!!

Because, at the last minute,  I didn’t bring my lightweight elephant bag I’ve been wondering how to carry home some of the things I’ve bought here. I was considering a supermarket bag, but I found a very respectable  cool bag for €7.50.  in the chinese shop which is just the right size.

Perfect.

I’m going home by train so I can be a bit more relaxed about luggage.

I didn’t  find another bank.

( Bought another art book from the secondhand book stall. So now I have four. )

Thought I’d go across  this fairytale bridge.
This tree is actually tied to the next one.
Sat for a while just looking and wondering how I could paint the sparkly bits.
Maybe May is “school visit to Verona” month. There were hundreds of them today.

Started painting today. This is after the first few layers. Lots more to go. Am enjoying this.

I’m mixing lots of colours to try to get close to the right one.

Although I was quite tired I decided to go for a short walk before being inside for the night.

Piazza Erbe. The painted walls are so beautiful.
There was a guy playing a double bass in the corner. I sat down to listen.
After I bought my book I saw this building with the faded paint and the cute car.

Last night I watched ” 39 steps” I like old black and white films. Might look for another similar tonight. Good and bad were relatively simple in these days.

Wine time now.

Cheers🍷🍷
