Bologna Day 5

Rather a late start to the day. I didn't sleep well and watched 4 episodes of Six Feet Under which I found in US Netflix.

I did have ministrone soup in a box (at 8.30)I found at the supermarket - with edamame beans no less! Then went back to bed. I got up at 12! 

And off I went. I found another blog about the canals which absolutely fascinate me.

I found a blog that took me to 2 other sites as well and to the outskirts of town - uphill. I'm the end I walked over 12kms

. So will just do photos instead. 

i thought this might have been one of the mild but think it might be a church.

I'm still trying to find out what am the celebrations are for!

This are was a port for Bologna and this was a salt store. Such a beautiful building.

maybe units. It looked private so didn't go up.

as you can see I was slightly besotted

It's the marvels of engineering - my passion

This is now a movie theatre. But it's also part of the canal system somehow.  It used to be a cigarette factory. 

I'm not sure what this is but I'm finding out. It has steps that go down but where to?

the first playground I have seen.

this was going up the hill to find part of the canal that I didn't find but think there's a tour. I'll check it out.

My restaurant last night

i had pork cheek with mash send vegetables as a side dish. It was beautiful.
