Parma

Wednesday morning we set out on a summer European road trip. Our first stop: Parma, Italy.

Chris found a gorgeous apartment for us to rent right in the heart of the famous Piazza Del Duomo. This is the view from the front of our building...

 A little sibling love before we head out exploring.

 Which way should we go???

 Piazza Giribaldi

 A hot summer evening is not complete without GELATO!

 Having a little fun in front of the huge doors of the Duomo.

A beautiful view of our apartment building (pink) from the piazza.

 This morning we wandered around the National Archaeological Museum, Galleria Nazionale, and the Teatro Farnese.

 A walk through Parco Ducale.

 Feeding the ducks and turtles in the pond.

They are fading fast in the heat!

Al fresco dining for lunch.

 When in Parma...

you must enjoy some 26 year old Parmesan cheese (delicious!)

Who is this stylish gentleman?

 A sweet girl and her doll in front of the Duomo.

 Inside the Duomo.

 Inside the baptistry.

 Another beautiful church around the corner from our apartment.

 Decisions, decisions...
