RUNNING OUT OF SUPERLATIVES

A final tribute to a very beautiful place -  Bellagio .

So lovely that you have to search your vocabulary for new ways to sing its praises.

What could be better than lunch in a delightful spot like this  ?

Or a cruise along Lake Como drinking in a sight like this ?

where small villages cling to the shores.

Or a visit to the beautiful Villa del Balbianello ?

Looking at old stonework walls and staircases

Or just the view through flowers and trees

You can even cruise past George Clooney's villa and hope to catch a glimpse!

Perhaps contemplate renting  Richard Branston's villa at 160 000 pounds a week ?

It's all here and plenty more

Farewell Beautiful Bellagio.

Cheers.

PLANNING

 

I'm still working away at my photo book from this year's holiday

 

but I'm also researching next year's holiday.

 

This research lark can eat up a lot of time as you go back and forth

 checking out accommodation,

checking out distances to drive between stop overs,

checking out things to see,

zooming in on Google Earth.

 

 

Here are a few photos from the Internet of the places we're hoping to visit.

 

 

I look forward to posting my own photos of these lovely places.

 

Now what did I do with that Italian for Dummies CD ?

 

Cheers.
