Day 4: Adria

Adria is a 3,000-year-old city built on the ruins of an Etruscan town. Its waterfront overlooks the Canal Bianco, where La Bella Vita was moored.

From the barge, we walked to the National Archaeological Museum of Adria, which was only a few minutes away.

A museum guide took us around the exhibits, which ranged from Etruscan and Roman objects to a pair of ancient horse skeletons that were visible in an excavation beneath the museum's atrium:

After our museum visit, we took a walk in Adria's city center. 

Adria was clearly a dog-friendly town.

By now, the locals were heading home for lunch, so we followed their example and returned to La Bella Vita for another of Andrea and Mario's midday repasts.

The day's lunch ended with Zeppole di San Giuseppe, which are fritters of  pâté à choux with pastry cream and fruit (in this case, raspberries).
