Weekend in Lake Como

We had a 3-day weekend in September & I finally have a few minutes to write this update about the weekend in Lake Como, Italy.
We met Chuck and Laura there & rented a real cute little house overlooking the lake. Here we are out on the balcony having our morning coffee.On our first day we went for a hike into the Italian Pre-Alps. It was a TOUGH hike...here we are catching our breath.And the good news is...We found out where the Smurfs live. Chuck and Cisco tried to find Smurfette, but she was must have been out on a date with Handy.We also got to see some beautiful scenery on the way.Later that evening, our friends Lori and Dave came up from Genoa and met us. We had a fun night of cards and, of course, Italian wine. Not that you could tell from the picture :)
We spent most of the next day wandering around Menaggio. Here's Cisco relaxing with Lori's dog, Cagney. How cute is she?
Later in the evening we made our way to Belaggio via ferry.
Belaggio was really charming...beautiful narrow streets with lots of fun shops.
And we had a glass of wine while we watched the sun set before heading back to Menaggio.
Here's one for the cover of our next album.
