Tried to see more wineries in Franciacorta, but because of the harvest it was hard to organise. So because we have such a hard life, we decided to go to the local thermal hot springs. It was a sacrifice, but someone had to do it.
That night watched the sunset over Lago Iseo from our balcony. It was one of the weirdest things we’ve ever seen. It’s so hazy here from the pollution, that the sun ‘set’ high in the sky and then disappeared behind a cloud or haze, we’re not sure which and then reappeared again. It was beautiful, but really weird. It’s good to have first class seats on the Titanic.
Next day, we stopped at Sirmione; a little peninsula in Lago Garda. It was so quaint. Like a seaside resort, but not. Castle. Fresh water. Swans. Roman ruins. We don’t get that at Rye.
