Weekend

After a full day of train riding we arrived at lake guarda. It's the biggest lake in Italy, I think. The rim is covered in hotels, rv parks, restaurants, and attractions. But there's also boats, kayakers, bikes, trails, mountains and resorts so it's hard to pin down the exact feel, but it was crowded. We booked another trailer cabin bungalow in the town of moniga. We took the boss about a km away and hauled our bags down mercifully to the campsite. The first thing Zabeth suggested was get in the lake, which was freezing. We swam, sat out, and went up to the grocery store to utilize the kitchen utensils provided in our cabin. Although we had a lot of groceries, we still went out for the night to a big event called italia in rosa. The gist of which was pink wine tasting. Since it was all sweet, and we don't know how to pour out wine, and since it cost ten dollars and we had to get our money's worth, let's just say nobody felt like eating too many of our groceries on Saturday. But we did get a lot of sleep. This morning we left moniga to be closer to our train tomorrow out of Venice for Austria. This evening were gonna catch the bus to Venice, we're now in Mestre, and then tomorrow we will be on the road again at noon.
