The mighty Dolomite Passes
... motorway so no ways am I going that way.
As I get closer to the main pass road the temp has fallen to -4 Celsius and I’m beginning to worry. However all seems great up ahead as it would appear that the gritters and snow ploughs have not long been over the pass as the amount of grit on the road is unbelievable.
The road is wonderful. Other than small sections of ice here and there I have no problems at all.

A fantasia journy
... I'm driving slow...very slow...I mean very very very slow...I could walk it faster. For ten minutes I couldn't breath the view was stunning and extremely dramatic, it was abyss all around and the huge rocks of the Dolomites were closing on us from above...I have to admit I don't like them at all those rocks, remember disney's movie fantasia?? If so, there is the part with Stravinsky music, in this piece there is a bold mountain that look exactly like the Dolomites figures...in the ...
