The weather here in August is usually very good, and bring a warm jumper or jacket with you because it is sometimes cool in the evenings. I know if you like going to the theatre and to the opera, then I have booked tickets for the performance of `Aida` in August 4th. An opera will start at 9.00 in the evening. Because there are lots of people when the seats do not have numbers we must arrive very early. I know that you will like the monuments in Verona, especially the Arena and the Roman theatre. There is a lot of good restaurants and cafộs in Verona and we can try some of the local dishes. I`m sure you like our food, especially the pasta and the fruit ice-cream. Please write to me early and tell me early what time you are arriving in Verona. With best wishes,
