On my balcony looking over Lake Como....

Is that Varenna below? I'm fairly sure I drove up that road below a week or so ago smile
You are correct! We are officially in Perledo. Way above the height-of-summer hoards. Our place in late Autumn and throughout the Winter is a complete gob-smack.

Have you noticed the peak in the distance is one mountain behind a flat top. From certain places it fits very well!

Two for me:

Last Tuesday night, after a long day presenting in KL, was improved immeasurably by Pho Bo and Asahi - 2 of Maslow's basic needs...

So Japanese Beer and Vietnamese Food in Malaysia.... very international...

Am in KL now so will update a suitable beery shot later.

After completing the Stelvio pass this morning it’s time for a well deserved drink at the hotel to cool down and relax.

Nothing exotic I am afraid, not even the beer.

Just at home on a nice Thursday evening, full of home made shepherds pie, sitting on the balcony off the lounge enjoying a beer with a little bit of Prince in the background.
