but soft! what light through wonder window breaks?

it is the east, and juliet is the sun.

maybe?

either way, here are juliet capulet's house photos

along the entrance to the main courtyard,

the walls are graffitied with love messages

juliet's balcony

ha

some love-art in the house

costumes from the 1968 film!

i want the dress...

bed from the 1968 film

i would do almost anything for stars like this on my ceilings

juliet statue.

notice the bright polished spot on her right breast?

that's because it's supposed to be good luck

to rub juliet's right breast

and just about everyone who comes to see juliet's house

does this for "luck"

i had to..

or else i would regret it later

i felt a little uncomfortable,

but the overall experience at the house was pretty fun.

in fair verona, where we lay our scene

well i'm now extremely behind since

i've now gone to 7 other towns since i've gone to verona

but those will make it on here in due time

after the girls and i went to venice, we stopped in

verona for a few hours on our way back to florence

i know i must say this about every town i visit

but.. it's adorable.

the cutest little city of love, imho

inside the roman arena

and outside

the parade that we kept seeing all around town

the main shopping street, via mazzini

piazza erbe

the old town center

where merchants used to weigh their goods in order to trade

la torre di lamberti

the view

seems a little reminiscent of bologna

inside the church of sant'anastasia

one of the most beautiful churches i've ever seen

right next to the ponte pietra

eating lunch in the roman theatre

with a cat?

the view from higher up

i love the contrast of the houses along the river

i saw these two walking via mazzini

on our way back to the train station

also,

verona is pretty well visited

just because of juliet's house

so i'm dedicating a whole separate post to it

i hope you weekends are going well ♥
