These are shots from the grounds of our first stay, the lovely Villa Lario on Lake Como. The grounds are lovely, and the restaurant outstanding, as well as an amazing staff! It is busy lake on the weekend, ferries and personal watercraft abound. Many of the lunch guests yesterday pulled up in their boats. I spent a good portion of the day by the pool or on our room’s balcony (pictured) enjoying an Aperol spritz.

The COVID tested flight into Milan made it easy to get in and travel about. We got our tests at home before we left, then we waited in line for about an hour once we landed to get tested again. The flight was not full, but three flights came in at about the same time and our was the second one in.

Today, we are just jumping on one of the ferries to see where it will take us. Andiamo!
