one fine day

January 14, 2011

There really are no words to describe how I felt that first morning in Italy standing on the shoreline looking across the sparkling waters of Lago di Garda. I remember thinking to myself, "I've died and gone to heaven." The weather was fine, the air crisp and clear. With my heart wide open, I felt an unforgettable sense of peace and pure contentment. I'll go as far as saying, it was the happiest moment of my life.

  3. Your photos are great from Lake Garda. Once a year we go to the lake on vacation. We try other places, but the lake in all its beauty draws us back every year. At least for a few days.

  8. Thank you ladies - looks like my lakeside pics have caused some travel fever :) Julie, if you want to visit Lake Garda you must see Riva del Garda (these photos) and the very pretty west coast town, Gargnano. There are so many more to add to that, but these two we enjoyed exploring the most! Enjoy, xo
