Why this plan works

The 3 stops cover about 5 miles total, which keeps you in one pocket of Wellington instead of crossing town between them. Wellington Amphitheater is the main event and takes the biggest block of time; the other stops are built around it. It finishes at Agliolio ~ a FRESH Take on Italian — a short, low-effort stop you can skip if you're ready to call it.
