Ferry hopping!

Menaggio, Lake Como

A scorcher of a day, so the only sensible place to be was on the lake. A short ferry ride across the lake from Varenna took us to Menaggio to visit a small market, and to enjoy a spot of people watching from a comfy café by the lake.

From Menaggio, a second ferry took us across to Bellagio, George Clooney's favourite spot for ice cream, but there was no sign of him as we wandered the narrow alleyways that wind themselves up and down through the town.

After a wander down to the fishing hamlet of Pescallo, (and a pizza, and another ice cream!), we took our final ferry hop back to Varenna, and as it was 6pm, there was nothing to do other than head to my local for an aperitif and a glass of Prosecco, or two!
