Ravenna, Italy [Honeymoon Part Nine]

Ravenna was such a gift.  I had no expectations of this city and I was delighted!  It was an especially crisp fall day with newly fallen leaves and a chilly breeze.  We meandered through the streets just enjoying the shops, churches, piazzas, and cafes.  Fun fact:  Dante Alighieri is buried in Ravenna (I had no idea)!  My humanities professor would be proud. 

I truly enjoyed all the great details we discovered on our stroll... wrought iron fencing, door knobs, old wooden doors, stone walls... What a fabulous city!

Happy Birthday to [my husband] James!  It was October 20th but here are some fun shots from the night!  We had Chinese for dinner, opened gifts, enjoyed pumpkin cupcakes and watched the Giants win!
