Bologna Day 2

I'm still besotted with my home.

I'm not sure which room I have, but I have 2 rooms - the other has a single bed. Everything here has been tastefully done. Unlike my Budapest apartment!
i look out onto a central stage and when that is pretty.
There are 2 types of plus used in Italy. One the simple 2 pin but another had 3 - a better fit. My dilemma has been that the one by the bed is 2 pin. So my mission trust read to buy another plug



The top one of what I bought. The bottom one I've been using. They prongs are different sizes. Not I can charge me laptop, my battery pack one the bottom one and my phone on the top one. So very exciting.
Then more wandering.
an installation - it's an eye!
this guy was so good. I have a video as well.
I was in a massive square.
King Neptune.

This blog I found is the same one that showed me how to pack for hot and cold for 3 months in a backpack.

And I found a Muji and a Decathlon shop. My favourites if there's no Uniqlo. Decathlon was disappointing - a small shop but the other good fun. I tried on a few things. Think I have room for another jumper! 
the poor towers. 
a cute church I think.
can you read Italian?
over yet to find out what this is. It's very old and very big. A whole block. I'll explore that more!
another place another drink. I got olives as well as chips. I had a lovely dinner - veal something with I think mash with cheese and the a treat!
so, so beautiful!
i found this lane which was near the square and was heaving. Great to watch the people.

    You have captured a slice on travel life so well. Food, walking, sites, people and most importantly, fashion! Love that window display.

My last day in Bologna

Up early this morning for my free coffee and brioche. I did rest before I went. A delightful breakfast! the noodles were ok but I didn't drain the tuna enough so it was a bit wet - yuk! But it was protein! I thought I would walk to the railway station today to see if it was ok for tomorrow. It's an easy route which is good.  It was a lovely walk. Lots of shops but also historic sites that I would never have found otherwise. it looks like the Gateway of India. No clue. the railway station. the same gateway from the other end. It looks like a most around it with ruins - maybe Roman. those look very deep - maybe something to do with the canals. it was a fun find. the across a road there's was this.  and this? It looked like the whole lot of it was a welcome to the city. The only thing I could find was from Google maps. Bologna, Emilia-Romagna http...

I've done the packing but I've got too much stuff. Only 4 sleeps so need to sort this soon. Apart from packing there's the garden, a tree to be sorted, bookings still to be sorted..... Another day and a relook and a repack and all is well. Everything fits and the bag was easy to do up! That means room for expansion. 😊  Now it's only 2 sleeps.

I missed the picture of all the Australian products made of felt. Very cute. Found this online After lunch we wandered. that's us. It was raining. they are all carrots! We then went to a pub. A very old pub! Can't find the name of it.
