Ponte Vecchio Verona Italy


 Not long after beginning a visit  to Italy, you begin to understand some Italian. If not, you miss out on things. The word "ponte" is the word for bridge and they are everywhere. "vecchio" is "old". In Verona (one of my favorite Italian cities) the Ponte Vecchio is part bridge and part fort and part museum. It is a remarkable piece of art, as well. We were blessed in our visit by a rainy day and it seems fitting. The tower in the distance is fun to go up and see the city. It is on the oldest section.
