Bellagio and Cadenabbia (day trip)
Bellagio is the self-proclaimed “Pearl of the Lake” with a classy combination of tidiness and Old World elegance. It is filled with posh shops and quaint eateries! And, of course, we had to check out the rich and famous Hotel Villa Serbelloni. Be sure to check out the princess making her grand entrance down the elegant staircase! (Dressed in capris, I was lucky not to get thrown out of this place! ~ Brazen little soul!)
Villa Carlotta, outside of Cadenabbia, is the best of Lake Como’s famed villas. It offers an elegant neoclassical interior, a famous Canova statue, and a garden in which we ate a picnic lunch! What fun and the garden was beautiful with all its blooming rhododendrons, trees and ferns! What a beautiful way to start a wonderful vacation! Oh yes, with the exception of Rome (3 nights) we stay in each stop 2 nights. |
