Saw the old Jewish ghetto. Thought we would see today’s lifestyles of present day but we got lots of historic info. Asked for a mix and didn’t get it.

Our trip was supposed to be bicycling and food tastings. We bicycled hard for two hours. No tastings just a stop for lunch. Our guide told no stories about the city just pointed things out.

I had a lovely day! Adèle was so nice and educated me on the culture and historical sights of Bologna. She was so sweet. Got some exercise- walking. Pizza 🍕 , granitas. Saw many churches ⛪️, and towers, secret window, Adèle was quite helpful , as I attempted to converse with the local Italians. She was so kind to pick me up and take me back to my hotel. It was a wonderful experience!!
