A CRUISE AROUND THE GARDA LAKE

more participants here

The last time I had taken the ferry boat from the very south of the Garda Lake to the north, was 36 years ago ! This time I took the opportunity to take it again, from Garda to Torbole where we stayed.

The plan of my "cruise"

My boat. It also takes cars

Arriving in Garda I had two hours to walk in the little city before I could take the boat back

Little streets the shops just started to open, it was around before 10 am

A view from the port

I walked along the lake

A memorial for all those who died in the lake.

Then I took my boat back.

Tori was the first stop

Then came Casteletto

Brenzone

and to my big surprise without knowing it, I had taken a picture from the hotel I stayed with my parents in 1963 when I was 20 ! Long time ago, but nice souvenirs. It had been the first time I was in Italy, in Malcesine

The port of Malcesine

and its castle. Malcesine is also called "The Pearl of the Garda Lake"

On the other side of the Lake we stopped in

Limone, sticked to the mountains like a nest

and finally I arrived in Torbole, my final destination, where we spent our holidays

If you don't get sea sick, you can do this little cruise with me.

More about the Garda Lake is here in my post 3 years ago.
