LAKE GARDA

This should have been posted last week but seems it got overlooked in  drafts – better late than never!!  Just sooooo busy!

As the blog said last year –not a lot to report when lazing around Lake Garda – campsite is right on the lake with restaurant and bar overlooking water.



Every evening Graham goes for swim off the pontoon (see background) and I sit and ponder the world with a cappuccino (decaff, but no flat whites in Italy, Niki!!) (see foreground)

We wander up to the village (although less inclined since the parking fine!) with church and square and ice cream parlour. and go to the local port for ferries around the lake.  And sit around reading and doing computery things – big improvement on campsite this year, wifi in the tent, so no trips to MacDonalds for free wifi – shame. 

Thought this was a bit unusual seeing a remote controlled platform entering the church porch
But then saw it inside dealing with a problem at the high window – so that’s alright.








Took the ferry to Salo on Saturday for market day – local cheeses and
barbecue stuff. 

There were also these stalls along the front – just like Art on the Prom in Grange-Over-Sands!  Only Farmers market stuff as well as crafty things.
