Varenna

Quick update today because I’ve got to get up early tomorrow morning for our day trip to Switerland (whoohoo)!

I woke up this morning and was greeted with a card and a few presents from Gary for my birthday. I opened most of the gifts before we left, but he saved a couple of the smaller ones for me to open today. It helps make the day more special, as if being in Italy isn’t enough (haha!).

We spent the day back in Varenna, exploring the Castello di Velzio and Villa Monastery. Below are a few pictures. For all the pictures from our adventure today, check out the Varenna photo album.

Lovely Varenna – you can see the Castle on top of the hill. We climbed all the way up there today!

Streets of Varenna. You can still see the medieval influences all over this town. It’s so cool.
