LAKE COMO, LAKE GARDA
We’ve have quite a drive today, the weather was rainy and dull, we passed Lake Como, and I’m sure it’s beautiful on a sunny day, but today it just looked bleak. Traffic here in Italy is a nightmare, to say the least. We have never seen so many trucks and semi’s ever as we have seen in Italy. Everyone thinks they are racing car drivers, and patience is not a word many drivers know. We finally arrive at probably the best camping area we have stayed at so far. Terraced sites, filled with ancient olive trees and overlooking Lago di Garda (Lake Garda) in a lovely town called Malcesina. We will take a little extra time here tomorrow to enjoy the warmer climate, the peace and quite and beautiful scenery before our next stop, Venice. The drive to Venice was an easy one, only just over 100k, still lots of trucks on the autostrada, but maybe I’m getting used to them sitting 2mm from your bumper. We have booked into a park only 15 mins from Venice and it has a shuttle to the city which saves us packing up. But alas with the closeness to the city also come the noise, so we have planes flying over head regularly, and road noise, but I’m not complaining, after all we are in Venice!
