Lake Como


I'd not been to any of the Italian lakes before, so was really looking forward to a day's hiking at lake Como. George Clooney has a villa there so I thought it can't be too shabby!

We took the funicular up party a hill then hiked up a great trail. The views over the town and lake were gorgeous. The air was so clean and it was wonderful to be out of the city.

We had a lovely picnic on top before coming down and then exploring the town. I was amazed! It's got medieval buildings and gorgeous old architecture.





We went for an ice cream then asked someone to take a photo of us.....the lady was Welsh and had just moved from Milan to Como. We worked out we had mutual friends and spent the evening with her. She gave us a lil tour of the town and took us to places we would have not found or realised their significance of without her. It was fantastic! Another happy day in Italy.

New friends!
The Clooney's!
