Florence Day 6 - Bologna..

It was gonna be a very wet day... so we decided to stay in a town - and today it was Bologna.

Caught the train and the route was mainly through tunnels.  The odd glimpses we had between tunnels gave view to some pretty impressive scenery though :D





San Petronio






























Street musician





And the food shops ....were to die for.. the smells and all the goodies presented so beautifully.. a picture in itself










Thoroughly enjoyed walking through all the arcaded streets.. kept us dry :D

























The Basilica Santo Stefano... a group of about 3 buildings into one church













The Torre d. Anselli











We then went into the San Giacomo Maggiore... no pictures permitted so a few scanned postcards.

















We had difficulty finding somewhere we were attracted to for lunch but eventually found a good restaurant.

I wasn't too impressed with Bologna but if the weather had been different I might have thought differently.  Friends certainly love it....  ah well, go back another time and find out.
