Title: Quick spring trip to a mountain lake
Post by: ugocon on April 13, 2013, 12:04:55 PM

Here is the GTR at the Canterno Lake, a small mountain lake about 100 km from Rome, this afternoon.

Very beautiful day and 20 C° temp: spring at last! :)

notice that the lake is much bigger than normal due to the hevy rains we had this year: trees are flooded!

I went to the nearby city of Fiuggi, famous for their curative water since roman times: they say also Michelangelo used to drink that water.
The side effect is the urge to release the bladder...  ::)
They took care of it anyway: this is in the ancient part of the city    :D

I was in Rome last June and we took a bus tour to Pompeii and Sorrento.  That road would have been even  more amazing on a Concours!  Thanks for sharing.
