VERONA, Italy _ They entwine in each other's arms, pressed against the cold stone wall, kissing softly. Or walk, hand-in-hand, gazing at the high stone balcony above the cool, leafy courtyard.
Two-by-two they come to the yellow brick house on Verona's Via Cappello, savoring a pilgrimage of love that's drawn them from Rome or London, Tokyo or Los Angeles.
Here Juliet stood on the balcony, calling out to her forbidden love lingering in the shadows.
``Romeo, Romeo, wherefor art thou Romeo?''
Or so Shakespeare wrote in ``Romeo and Juliet.''
