Hotel Breakfasts were even better than Rome with our host taking some special requests.
Taxi to Europcar to rent a lovely Audi mid-size for the rest of our Italy itinerary.
Drive to Ravenna, on the Adriatic coast. Lots of farming and industry to see.
Check into Hotel Diana in Ravenna after finding parking structure in back. *
Walk to outdoor cafe for cappelletti (hotel owner, Phillip (?), says it's the bomb!)
Mosaics are Ravenna's specialty along streets, churches, historic buildings, and museums.
Basilica di San Vitale was open and we viewed a gorgeous old church.

* Notes: Parking was always an adventure. Always how and where ask when making the reservation.
