But soft! What light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, Juliet is the sun!
……………………………………………..
It is my lady; O it is my love!
-Shakespeare, “Romeo and Juliet”, Act II, Scene II.
Ciao! Blogging from Verona! Verona is a small town (somewhat like Melaka), about 2 hours by train from Venice. I paid 10 euro for 126 mins of internet use ler. So expensive, so gotta blog fast. Sorry for not replying on msn. Got to race against time to update my blog =D. But things in Verona is much more cheaper than other cities in Italy. Buy one Verona pass for 8 euros, you can take any buses and enter all the tourist attraction for free.
The Arena is the world’s third-largest amphitheatre to survive from antiquity. It was built in the 1st Century AD, survived an earthquake in 1117 and still functioning today offering performances and opera. There was a performance today for 24 euros each ticket… but I too poor, cash running low so I miss it.
.
This arena is smaller and doesn’t look as grand as the colosseum in Rome but the good thing about it is that it is still functioning.
They modified the interior, added chairs and a stage to it.
Evening view of Arena from Piazza Bra.
This is a familiar shop everywhere in Italy, even a small town like Verona.
.
Italians are very rich la. We only got one LV shop in KL, want to find second one in other city also susah.
From piazza bra, walking past the high street shopping district, you will see a wall filled with conteng conteng. This is Juliet’s house. So kesian, kena vandalised until like dat.
.
Why those angmoh so crazy wan? Conteng until like dat…. got no more space for me to conteng liao lor. Haih… I wanted to write love message to Wu Chun =(.
.
Graffitis + Italians = crazy. Even the buses, trains also got graffitti on it.
This is the famous balcony where Romeo sings to Juliet.
=D I also want to wait for my Romeo to sing to me.
Do you notice that Juliet’s right breast very shiny? Don’t know why everyone that come here will grope her boobs and take a picture with this statue. So kesian, die liao also kena molest.
Hehehe… but I also joined the crowd. =P Who knows after touching her boobs I’ll become prettier. I’m trying my best to grope both sides lor but I’m too short, and arms too short.
Not far away there is a clock tower. This clock tower damn cool, you can take the lift that bring you up to the tower directly.
This is the view from the clock tower. Wow, didn’t expect that there were so many houses around the city because Verona is a serene small town, don’t see many people walking around also except tourists.
I think I gained weight. Italian food and gelato is making me fat. Lol. But I must admit that it taste so gooooood!
In the middle of Piazza Bra, there is a fountain in front of the Arena. It looks so beautiful during the night time. Such a romantic place to paktor.
