Lake Como

The second day in Milan, we decided to get on the Metro, to the train station to get to Lake Como. We weren’t too sure what to expect, but figured that we were close so we would check it out. 

The day happened to be really, really windy!  It was kind of crazy, actually.  It’s a pretty small town, although Lake Como is huge and extends pretty far North, I think that Lake Barcis near us is much more beautiful.  We walked around the town, rode the gondola to the top of a mountain to look down over the town and lake, ate lunch and headed back to Milan. 

We wanted to get on a ferry and head to Bellagio, but the ferry left at 11 and didn’t get back until 6pm, with the hour train ride back and all that wind, we decided not to go.  When we got back to Milan we headed back to the main square where the Duomo is to see what else was going on.  It was a nice trip, glad we got to see Milan!
