Buona sera, from Lagi di Como!

Don & I are hard at work, pre-Fjords' cruisin', on Lake Como, Italy. Sun is shining, the sounds of silence are even better than I can remember, and, most importantly, the vino is flowing. Here's a sample of our hard work:.....

[Linked Image] Our relaxation time spent here...

[Linked Image] Enroute to yet another wonderful pre-Fjords meal. Our hotel in background. Large balcony is so pretty - not ours, of course:(

[Linked Image] Ferry arriving at our hotel dock. A tour on the lake is high on our list.

If you haven't seen this alpine lake region, it's definitely worth the time to visit!! You all are with us in spirit!

Ciao for now,


Michele

Michelle so wonderful to hear from you! After what you went through with the foot infection and missing out on Penguin Poop - you truly deserve this wonderful pre cruise trip. :)

Keep the pre-cruise Sea Mail coming!!!

See you soon and thanks for the pictures.

It looks beautiful Michele - we had planned to spend some days in Bellagio in October with Marcie and Tom after a cruise but we canceled for Lamb so still at top of my list!!! Marcie had found a great hotel with terraces - another time

We are checking in from the KLM lounge at Narita. No traffic this morning then a pass to the front of the line at check in means that we have two hours to cool our heels.

Hope that Delta flight from Atlanta doesn't run out of wine or else we might meet up with some disgruntled ladies when we arrive in Copenhagen.

We are so glad that this trip is finally here. See everyone soon!!!!
