Bologna

We were only meant to spend one night here, but God must of had other plans for us.

When we got to Lisa's aunty and uncles house they served us a standard Italian lunch, first a serving of homemade tortellini and the a serving of meat. Delizioso! Afterwards Lisa and I roamed the city while Lisa's aunty baby dad G.

We roamed around looking at what the city had to offer. The most beautiful interior of a church I've seen so far. Unfortunatley we weren't allowed to take photos. It was massive inside, the walls layes with carvings of different church figures, linings painted with real gold and a massive statue of Jesus on a cross hanging from the rough down the front. In the city there were also two tall towers being held up by some wire as they were leaning. We found a Disney shop (highlighted with the Superheros mug photo) and managed to get some shopping in. We had a hard time finding the right bus home, taking us about an hour and half to get home.

During the night we woke up to a boiling hot Giacomo... straight to the hospital we went. 4am we left the hospital, Giacomo had a small chest infection and is now on antibiotics. Thank God he's ok.

We missed our flight to Bari and have stayed in Bologna two more days than planned. Now we're winging it for a while until we head down to Rome next week. We might be off to Florence tomorrow, fingers crossed G stays well.
