I've visited the Dolomites region (the Italian Alps) before, but never with the students. With a world renowned archeological museum, a beautiful mountain backdrop, and a unique South Tyrolean German/Italian culture and cuisine, it makes a great first stop in Italy.

| They has a real wood fire going for us in our own room at the several hundred year old Batzenhausl restaurant in Bolzano.

| Not sure what is going on here. |

| Visitors board at the South Tyrol Archaeology Museum. C+ for the art. |
