Well rested we passed the Brenner pass the next day and drove to our destination at the Lake Garda in Italy. Arne and Susanne, who have Luffe from our N-litter, have stayed many times in a comfortable Danish owned house in the little town Colá di Lazise. We should stay there for a week.
The house was great for the dogs. Maise and Alonso especially liked the aircondition (not common in Denmark). When it got too hot outside, they went into the cool house and rested, while we sat on the terrace, relaxed and sipped Bardolino wine! In the evening we took the dogs for walks in the beautiful surroundings and in the cozy little town of Colá. Soon the dogs got well known among the people there!
More pictures from Italy - we went to Verona
During the week we visited the area. Garda is beautiful, and yes – there are many tourists. But we got up early and went to the harbor front, the little villages and to the marketplaces before it got “German time”. Tourists sleep long, and we took advantage of that!
We drove to the mountains surrounding the Lake Garda. We went along narrow roads with exceptionally beautiful views. We found a mountain pass, where the temperature was cool enough to please the dogs. We enjoyed our lunch in the open, while the dogs relaxed in the shade.
We got time to visit an Italian vineyard in the Valpolicella area. The owner was very friendly, and she showed us the vines, the production and let us taste the wonderful wine they make. A couple of boxes with red wine came home with us.
