The Lakes in Northern Italy

Stunning, beautiful, calm and restful are words which immediately spring to mind when describing this area.

Our first view of Lake Garda in Northern Italy

We were lucky to find a magic site at the Lake Garda end of the park. Being by this entry point we see lots of people coming and going - lots of boats, enjoy the ducks, love the geese, see lots of dogs and enjoy the music from the 'boys club' which operates the water school. Out comes the guitar on Sunday morning accompanied by much singing and laughing.

It is a beautiful part of the world

Gorgeous early evening walks

The Lake first thing in the morning

and the Lake last thing at night

 The Danish, Dutch, German and Austrian kids are now on holiday so life in the park is different, lots of happy children getting up early, running and enjoying being by the water. Early in the morning, the camps loud speaker comes on singing ' Good Morning, Good Morning, it's nice to say Good Morning, Good Morning, Good Morning to youuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu . !!!!!! AND then proceed to tell you in a number of languages what's happening in the morning and early afternoon. Stretching or water sports etc for the children. Cute and we hope most are actually having a GOOD MORNING. (I just can't get it out of my mind !!)

It's great and we've enjoyed some lovely walks and rides along the foreshore in the early morning and evening.  Local mother Goose brings her little gosling's to the foreshore in the early evening and we've been lucky enough to feed them. It was lovely. Mother Goose got a little wobbly or forgot the hand that feed her and gave Helena a bite on the bum. Miserable bird!

No introductions needed - aren't they cute ?

We spent four days at Lake Garda - unfortunately poor if any internet connection but just loved the place and really enjoyed the times we shared over a drink or two ......

Now - who is that bird ??

Who is this guy? Doesn't he look relaxed.

                                                         The Italians and their transport ........

There are so many of these little cars ...

AND - look at the other car I spotted

We spent some enjoyable time with a couple we met from England - Paul and Jackie. Lovely couple and great to hear their stories over a drink or two and hope to see them again.
