Great cake shop and the oldest sweet shop in Cremona are on Via Solferino....

Wish you could all come to see it...

The cathedral is the best part -just over 900 yrs old -fab carvings in marble inside -not too religious and showing the local people and their occupations at the time....priceless. If you want to find me and I'm not at home -I'm usually looking at them, putting my futile problems to right, they are nothing compared to this time scale...
Does 'sound' quiet nice.

Though perhaps a bit lacking on the heritage/cultural side of things.

I can understand why you enjoy coming back now.
