Discovering Bologna with Car Hire

Everthing has been going to schedule since we got here on Friday. We couldn't get a booking for a room in Bologna so we stayed in the nearby village of Ferrara. We found a charming little restaurant in the centre of the town and filled our bellies with local favourites from the Emilia-Romagna region.

The next day we went on a little shopping trip to see what local produc we could find. The quality of the produce was amazing so we stocked up on some fresh fruit for our car hire journey to Bologna. The drive took about 40 minutes and was pretty enough for us to stop and take some photographs.

Bologna is a wonderful city, much under-rated in my opinion. There are lots of pretty buildings to explore and nice shops and restaurants. Of course Bologna is where Spaghetti Bolognese first originated, it's now one of the world's most favourite dishes.

Can't wait to explore more of the city!
