This weekend my humans took me on a visit to Bologna – the home of spaghetti bolognese (drooooool)!
Missus picked a special hotel for our stay. Check it out here. They offer services like dog walking and grooming, they have an in-house vet and they provide selected dog foods. What more could a dog want from a hotel? They certainly do their best to make you feel like a VIP (Very Important Pooch!).
Here I am in our hotel room. Check out the doggie bed and the feeder bowls which were waiting for me when I arrived. Unfortunately the bed was a bit too small for me so I made myself at home on the humans’ bed instead.
Once we were settled in, we took our first look around downtown Bologna...

This is me and Dad posing in front of two of Bologna’s famous towers.

Here they are in all of their glory...
...and look at them from this angle. See how much the one in front is leaning!

Me and Missus in front of one the old city gates...
Finally, we arrived in the heart of the city, Piazza Maggiore. Before exploring any further, my humans decided to take a well earned break...

Here I am with Dad in the centre of the Piazza, with some of Bologna’s historic buildings behind us...
...and here we are from a different viewpoint.

As the home of the oldest university in the world, Bologna is teeming with students. Many of them spend their weekends busking in Piazza Maggiore. This makes the place very vibrant. Check out some of the acts...
And there were many other characters milling around...
There were no shortage of takers...
All in all we had a wonderful weekend in Bologna. I wonder where we’ll be going next week? Watch this space...
