Our last evening in Como

After our day in Milan we got back to Como in time to take a quick trip up the mountain before sunset...I wish we had had more time to explore!

We took the funicular railway to another little town (sorry - forgot the name!) on top of the mountain.

The weather yesterday was the best we had - sunny and warm!


















Milan

We took the train to Milan yesterday to do some retail shopping....and got to see the cathedral too...

Viila D'Este

Today we went to the show, had lunch at Harry's Bar (where Geroge Clooney is rumored to hang out...) and then stopped for coffee at the fabulous Villa D'Este Hotel in Cernobbio...



 Their pool FLOATS in the lake....

Lake Como - Italy


The pictures don't do this place justice....  

It is seriously one of the most breathtaking places I've ever seen...

The first picture is from our hotel...
