Back to Varenna

CHAPTER 9

After a pleasant day strolling around the cobbled streets of Bellagio, drinking wine and tapas on charming restaurant patios, and popping into every shop with an interesting storefront (somehow we still managed to keep most of our Euros in our pockets, despite the constant tickle to the girls’ spending bones), we called the day a success, and hoped on the ferry back to Varenna.  The ride was smooth, and the late afternoon light cast a perfect golden glow over the placid waters of the lake, and the grandiose villas that cling to its shore.
