My hunt for the best gelato in Europe. On the way there should be interesting people, places, and my studies, of course.

The Day We Went to Ancona

After meeting the Italian architecture students, we got into groups of 5 or 6 to do our design project in Ascoli, which is a art display installation in the city of Ancona, right on the Adriatic coast.


At the Hotel Pennile, we get breakfast every morning, which consists of rolls, various cream and chocolate filled pastries, pie, blood orange juice and some red kind of juice, and a variety of mineral waters. For the rolls, there are many kinds of jelly and cheese spreads, along with Nutella, Kendrae's favorite (pictured here).





After about an hour on the road, we arrive in Ancona to see the airport, the site of our project. Its very small, and was just recently built.








After seeing the airport, we had a few hours to explore the city. Here, Trevor and I are near a nifty archway on the coast.





The Adriatic sea! There aren't any beaches in this area, it is mostly cargo ships and ferries in this particular bay.





This is what I made a sketch of that day for my Travel Log.





Ancona Gelato is amazing, as they all are. My flavors this day were Nutella and Tiramisu!

Lindsey and I love shopping in the market, here in a piazza in Ancona, we spotted one across the square. We bought some...interesting things in Ancona...
