Poem
My wife and I share a passion for travelling, the world we love to see We travelled through France and Switzerland and we're now in Italy Day one was a trip in a cable car to the summit of Mount Baldo The views from the top were amazing of Lake Garda down below. Day two we visited Verona, a city of great architectural beauty And it's where Shakespeare was inspired by Juliets famous balcony We saw great works of art showing statues, of Roman mythology Churches now outnumber them after their conversion to Christianity. Day three we went on a speed boat trip on the beautiful Lake Garda Then had a walk around the town of Sirmoine, and ate some tasty pizza Of course the day would not be complete without tasting some gelato Every flavour you can think of, it's ice cream in case you didn't know. On the fourth day we went to Venice and we were pleasantly surprised St Marks Square, Rialto Bridge, Doges Palace and The Bridge of Sighs Lots of narrow passageways that leads to many a little square Words alone can't convey its appeal you really have to be there. On the fifth and last day a scenic trip up the Dolomite mountains We saw scenic alpine images and drove through villages with fountains Swiss style chalets dotted the hillsides that added to its great charm Scenes of utmost tranquillity that gives you a feeling of inner calm. Day six and its time to head back home, and we travelled through the night Through Switzerland then Calais in France, to catch the ferry at first light Then just two more coaches that will take us nearer to our home My wife is looking at brochures for next year, to see where else we can roam. Written on 9th October 2022.
