Pinned down by the weather...

On Lake Garda... In a 4 star hotel... with a spa!

After dealing with a crappy ride yesterday over two passes (one through a super heavily industrialized city (gross)), then a serious rain storm, we pulled into a hotel on Lake Garda. Due to its excessive fanciness we nearly rode right by but we decided we'd check the price anyway. Luckily since its the low season the prices were low, the spa was free, and the breakfast was fantastic. I guess there is always a silver lining!

Today we're off to Sirmione, then on to Verona to say hello to Juliet. then its on to Venice and the canals. Hopefully the roads improve and the views get better each day!

  2. Sirmione is awsome. Check out a restaurant/bar called the cork. Its next to the path up to the Hotel Villa Cortina, handmade pasta and plenty of good wine.

    Have fun in Italy!
