Just time for a quick trot over to Bologna’s best fountain (Google it, no R rated pix here!) and we’re off to Modena. Flat ride through “light industry” so no pix. Modena is a great town though…
After doing laundry in a real washing machine, replenishing groceries and generally catching up, we are off for a wander in Modena.
This one’s for CBI, if you’re reading. No LEDs.
Odd, since there are no tourists…
Poked around in Modena’s 500 year old city hall, that has hearing rooms like this.
Some classic statuary in the parking lot
And a bucket stolen from Bologna in the 16th cen. I don’t know, but it’s in an alarmed case, so it must be important!
Unfortunately, Modena’s civic museum complex was closed to the public “for a while” so we had lunch - best pizza yet!
And wandered around town for a bit seeing the scenery - like these door handles
Weird name for a shoe store.
These special butchers are everywhere
Just hung around in the Piazza Grande doing crossword puzzles and people watching. I think we’ve officially adopted la vita dolce.
Our B&B host served us some parmesan with balsamic vinegar from Modena… In fact, from the attic, where she makes it.
More “creative” Italian parking
OK, I know I promised, but this was great gelato - pink grapefruit and blood orange. Made up for a disappointing and pricey dinner.
