The mighty Dolomite Passes
... Soon I’m at the summit of "Pordoi pass" which is 2239m above sea level. The weather up here is glorious sunshine and the temp an amazing 10 Celsius. However, even though the sun is so hot the whole place is covered in snow. There are a number of hotels and restaurants but there is no sign of life in any of them.

We were looking forward to a relaxing stay in ...

There were tons and tons of orchards fully laden with apples and lots of tractors driving huge loads along the road in front of us. We stopped at one stand and picked up a ...
A fantasia journy
... for 2 meters ahead and aviv cried but it was beautiful outside so it's all good!! We reached cortina...what a nice place, can be a background for muller commercial video, all around was green slopes with little Austrians style huts...we found our apartment easily, after all it's a small place.
