The Hills are Alive...

Back to the mountains

Runt sjön
... märkligt men den var fantastiskt god. Planen var att åka utefter södra delen på Gardasjön, och inte åka längre norrut än staden Garda. Men det slutade med att vi åkte runt den norra sidan av Gardasjön. Det visade sig vara ett bra val. Längst ...
