This was our last day of our Germany, Switzerland, Italy summer vacation. A few short, action packed days in Germany, followed by a deliriously sweet visit to Switzerland. We ended our trip in northern Italy, but that was deceptive, as we kept wandering back into Switzerland. The border meanders around the lakes making it almost impossible to stay in one country.
We navigated trains, funiculars, cable cars, taxis, buses, planes and miles of city streets on foot. We are pros at reading maps in three languages.
Some of our highlights were having antipasto prepared by Miss Jeni. We enjoyed it in their garden in Waldenbuch. Hiking down one of the Swiss Alps....incredibly challenging but rewarding. We were sore for days. Sitting on our balcony in Varenna overlooking lake Como and sharing a glass of wine or two. Sitting on the steps in Bellagio and talking with my new friend Maria, in broken italian. And finally spending fifteen amazing minutes with Leonardo DaVinci and his Last Supper.
Of course there were many many other adventures, many memorable bottles of wine, and many wonderful people.
So until the next time Ciao Baby!
