Our Grand European Tour: Day 13 Ferrara-Rome

We stopped in a small old medieval town called Ferrara while on our way to Rome. It is famous for some of the famous dynasties who live within the town.

Ferrara was actually hit by one of the earthquakes a few weeks ago. My tour guide was given the option to go somewhere else but wanted to show is the medieval castle and church. She warned us on what to do if and earthquake were to happen. Just the thought that we could experiece one, sent a chill down my back. Thank God nothing happened. We also went to visit the Cathedral of Ferrara, which is also known as St George Cathedral. I wasn't allowed in because I had shorts on :( but that's totally not my fault: our tour guide said we could wear shorts today...

Then we went to the Castle of Ferrara. We weren't allowed to go in there either:( because the Castle was getting restored from the damages of the earthquake.
The town itself was very pretty and quaint. Something like what I thought Vienna would look like. We were only there for a short period of time and they had a bunch of shoe stores...we went into a few but nothing in my size :(

The Big Bad Castle

Statue outside the Castle walls

There's a moat around the Castle!..just

Once we got all settled into Rome, we headed out to a resturant called Mino Restraint. It was a cute resturant, and the food was pretty good. Grandma got a rose from the waiter, and a kiss!!..I only got a rose.

Dinner in Rome!
