A Day in Modena

This morning we woke up to make the short drive from Bologna to Modena. It is only about 45 minutes away.

Upon getting here we initially thought it was a ghost town but once we got in to the historic center, it was quite crowded.

in the center of town there is a large flea market with lots of good stuff. Unfortunately we didn’t bring a shipping container with us. There also appeared to be a book fair in the adjacent piazza.

The food market here is quite large as well. It reminded us of the food market on Barcelona but likely a bit smaller. After walking around for a bit we grabbed a quick lunch. We stopped at Sosta Emiliana for a nice salad, eating light today.

This afternoon we ran a couple errands and did some window shopping during the passegiata. Now we are enjoying a Spritz surrounded by all the very chic Modenese. Also, Easter season is in full swing so lots of church bells ringing all over the city.

Sadly, this our last full Saturday in Italy so we plan to make the most of it.
