A Limoncillo Toast...

for Paula! I drank this nectar last night and thought of our own Paula! It was delicious, but I still hope to sample some of Paula's homemade "juice" (hopefully she will hide it better next time!!!) πŸ˜€

We left Dallas on Monday and arrived in Milan on Tuesday. At his time, I am not sure what day or time it is. :blink: ( we are 7 hours ahead of CST). We walked all around the city and saw more shoes and handbags than even BR could shake a stick at!!! :clap: Saw Leo's The Last Supper this morning...it was unbelieveable to see it in person. A wonderful man picked us up and drove us to Bellagio on Lake Como this afternoon. George's place is between here and the city of Como. He will be very fortunate to see me while I am here. :cool: Tomorrow we begin to explore this beautiful spot. The water of the lake is around 68-69 degrees, so I will only experience it by boat. ;-)

Ciao for now!!! :wave:

Limoncello rocks, if you have the chance try Crema di Limone as well. (Might be more available the closer you get to Capri, not as much in the north where you are).

So jealous!

Handbag heaven? Are you forgetting about the silk scarves of Como? What I wouldn't give to get my hands on some of that beautiful silk (okay, bags too πŸ˜€ ).

Miss Kitty, see if you can see that mansion on the lake, the one that was in Star Wars and the last James Bond movie. It's on the other side of the lake from where you're staying.

Oh yes, and have a swig of the good stuff for all of us!!! Or one or two or several! :clap:

I lost another post earlier today. Forgot to copy. :bang: But, thanks to y'all for cracking me up!!! :rolling:

We are staying at the Grand Hotel Villa Serbelloni...or as I call it, the Sir Baloney. πŸ˜€ This place is surreal in it's beauty and charm. I do believe the Italians are some of the best people on the earth. Our driver from Milan is a huge fan of Houston, as he lived there for a few years by request of the hotel to learn English. He pulled out a Texas flag and stuck it in the air vent for our ride to Bellagio from Milan. He was one of the only drivers to not ask us about cowboy hats and horses. :roll: Last night, we dined in the hotel during a rain storm which kept the terrace windows up, but gave us a window to the weather! Guess what drink was on the menu? PLANTER'S PUNCH!!! Of course, you learn quickly to enjoy wine as a cocktail is at least $25! 😱 We spent today exploring the quaint town of Bellagio and stopping for PIZZA and wine for lunch. Had a wonderful fish meal tonight at a lovely restaurant overlooking the lake. Tomorrow is boating towards Villa D'Este (very swanky swank) for lunch. We will pass by George's and :wave: . I promise to kiss him for all the ladies )and some of the men) if he is lucky. πŸ˜€

Ciao for now! :clap:
