The Arena and Gelato


        While in Verona, we went to an arena.  It was pretty old, but looked older then it was.  They used to hang people and do deaths for really bad people.  My dad said that.  It was mostly used for fights, that were supposed to be entertainment.  There were 3 types of fights.  One with human against human,  one with human against animal, and one with animal against animal.  The people had to fight or die.  They were also most likely slaves.  When they were animal fights, they made the animal really hungry, so it had to eat food, namely the humans or other animals.  Here's some pictures of it.

Weird toilets.


On the way out.


It is now used as an outdoor opera house.
Now onto some really cool gelato.
