Bologna...better, or worser?

Certainly better than Florence...but not comparable to Soriano, Bologna is a huge city! And typical of Italians, they love their churches! At last count, they have 2 churches for every person...and they have some of the biggest oens I've ever seen...churches too!
We went back to the mercato for lunch, and ran into Keanu, so he had lunch with us...
I had the green stuff with ham!
Keanu was busy, so we parted ways, and we went to the big square they have here...
...and Dora decided to do a drawing in front of this building...
...I went inside the big-ass church (one of the ones I showed you already), and when I came out, Dora had a crowd gathered around watching the magic she was putting down on the page! These two young guys wanted sex, so I had to straighten them out...thankfully, the second guy was in a wheelchair..
.
...but this gentleman might have gotten lucky if I hadn't shown up...
We heard the statue of Neptune was close by...
Whoever did it, obviously had a sense of humour...
I was running out of gas by this time, but there was this flower...
Dora hasn't gotten nearly enough credit here. She kept me from initiating several mass casualty events in Florence, especially at the train station, and car rental return!!! She did ALL the driving, and patiently listened to my bitching...only backhanded me three times in Florence!!! That's got to be some kinda record!
I try to get her drunk so that she won't kill me...it's worked so far!
