Hotel Adige Trento

Departed Dublin around 07:30, first stop Italy for the wedding. Arrived in Malcesine for lunch. Checked into hotel Alpino, a great little spot, right in the centre of the town, chilled for a while then caught up with friends who were already settled in. <br>Weather was a bit of a mixed bag, but we still had enough sunshine to make the most of our time. We got the ferry across Lake Garda to visit Limone for the amazing invisible market and ...

... english, told us she had a fantastic time with us and would see us soon. We gave her big teary eyed hugs and said goodbye. The next day was the worst of all. We woke up early to eat breakfast with Dominico and Sarah, Pino's son and his girlfriend. I got a knock on my door telling me to hurry up, Pino was outside saying a quick goodbye before he had to go to the airport. I was so relieved that i was going to get to say goodbye to the person i had grown ...

... andiamo a visitare. Per questa ragione abbiamo deciso di acquistare la NY Pass www.newyorkpass.com , una card del costo di 132$ che offre l'ingresso (senza code) a praticamente tutte le attrazioni della città. Ne esistono numerose altre tra cui la city pass che costa meno ma comprende meno ingressi. (dipende un po' dall'uso che vorrete farne.

... them excited at their find! Pina said 'the pile of rocks over that hill just didn't look right' - she will make a good cacher! Back through the tunnel, to the hotel where we retrieved out luggage, dropped Pina at her home and we all took a nap-though Carol and I are so wound up we could not sleep. We had said no more food, after that huge lunch, but she had 2 bowls of leftover minestrone soup and 2 bowls of tiny bow-tie pasta in liquid. When we leave here ...

... mile to their home. I would guess we have walked about 2 miles today! After 7 we headed out to their house---and got lost. Not too bad though-just missed seeing the house though we had taken the correct side road. Called and she ran out and met us. They had dinner ready- fresh minestrone soup, chicken with spaghetti sauce, bread and some delicious potatoes, then some baked peaches with a chocolate on the top-very good. After dinner we a ...

... too- there is a huge castle/fortress high on a prominent point above the town. This is also a town the rock climbers come to for extreme climbing. We walked all over town trying to find a street fair Maria had read about, and finally did find it- very small, about 10 booths and a food booth where we ate a plate of LOTS of thin sliced beef and red beans - and red wine of course! Really good meat and we all cleaned our plates. Walked a bit ...

... is the fourth most popular tourist city in Italy (after Rome, Venice, and Florence of course.)  We saw the old bridge that connected the old city to the newer part. We drove up the hill and saw a view of the city. Then we went into the city and saw where Juliett's house was.  This is not a real house of course but it has a balcony and an old building.  People wrote love notes on the wall going into her house.  Some guys on the ...

For years I was told that I ski like a girl. My father convinced me that this was no insult nonetheless the ski companies had me believe otherwise. No ski was built for my womanly features. I was thus forced to plead like Lady Macbeth "unsex me now!" I cried broaden my biceps, built up my buns and turn them into steal. Replace my breasts with pecks and please, oh please for heaven's sake, change my center of gravity! Fortunately K2 heard my cry and ...
