Como-toast

Hurrah for Varenna on Lake Como... real toast served at breakfast.. Oh, sorry, I am supposed to wax lyrical about the  lake and the entrancing enchanting views... but what the heck. Let the photos tell the story for a little bit...

Vernazza

Bellaggio

Plenty of tourists here, all doing what we are doing... walking, riding the ferries, shopping in expensive retail outlets... eating wonderful food. (The lake trout is very good. )

In Rome we ventured into the world of the hop on-hop off bus. Bellagio doesn't run to a double deck outfit, it has the far superior Trombella Express! At 5 Euro a head it was a bargain.

It provided easy access to views like this...
