Community Service Letter M

from Bormio

Always August last just because you work here ........ However last year when we were on vacation we went to Macclesfield for a few days for a super car ride ..... or on-the-road marathon or better in the car! So our tour started from the charming village of Macclesfield, via Luino Fornasette to stop for refueling and some chocolate, go to Lugano and Lake Lugano on the follow up to Porlock, then continue to get to Lake Como, lunch seems to Menaggio, then follow up on the lake to Colico where you take the road to the Valtellina. Help and guidance, traffic is terrible and even a scene with all crabs sti villages with areas industrial, actually a bit of a disappointment. Once in Sondrio wanted to visit but I guess it goes round and round we could not find parking and there is very passionate about so we took the road and driving and driving and driving we finally arrived in Bormio! And here I am: Luckily we found a room in a hotel, still evening out to visit the historic center of Bormio, which is very nice! The square: The couple in the square where we had dinner at a restaurant very good! A good meal! And then a walk to look at the windows, here's my favorite! Gnammi gnammi! The next day we went to take the cable car super! That goes on and on. You see that peak? And there is only half the race! Leaving Bormio ...... mountains here we come! Attacked we go up!
And that's who we are welcomed to 2000m? I do not remember the first stop where it is. A nice quiet Mucchino grazing pristine mountains .....
.... just you! Watch that stuff here! A great place to leave the restaurant with the children and then there is also a hotel in front!
Waiting for the second cable car up to go up higher and higher up to 3000 meters!!
Here we climb higher and suuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu altoooooooooooo!!
And here we are! Ali wanted a picture with the restaurant! Even at 3000 m says that if she tells it home without a picture does not believe that in Italy we have no restaurants right on the mountains!
We also went to take a stroll at high altitude or rather we wanted to go but after about 5 minutes walk downhill, we were already tired! The next time will be better to put in a little bag of pure oxygen and something warmer than up here is pretty cool!
The next time I put photos of the rest of the tour!
soon

What Are The White Bumps On My Testicles

dall'Alpone of Curiglia

again since last August because the photos are not over and here is still gray! Trip to Curiglia all'Alpone and walk with the Madonna della Guardia! If you've never been really worth it! But take a day not too hot that the road is steep and I'll break ..... especially if you're not as fit as me! From Curiglia, the view from the church, after buying the sandwiches in the only bar in the country with a very relaxed and homely ..... if you were there you know what that means!

Then he starts to climb up the narrow streets of the country that so fascinated Ali, he continues to make photo to each lane and run-down house and tell him that I am just old houses ..... ... but some are quite nice! Certainly very characteristic and very old for someone who comes from a country where the oldest house is 100 years old ..... no ..... not really but almost!

A bit more about the forest path opens up a bit and there is a nice view from here ...... Curiglia looks even better!
journeyed ...... or rather limps limps ...... you get to this beautiful village where you can not get in the car called Pradecolo, quite cute! I think they are all holiday homes and no one lives there all year .... there were also houses for sale if anyone is interested in going on vacation in a super quiet!
I think that due to my will ..... hot and steep road and lack of training ..... noting, however, the lush gardens of the country, here we were right in front of the houses.
Ali has found something familiar! In New Zealand you're not a real farmer / breeder if you have at least one of these! Now I drive it too, we use it at work! Funny but we must go slowly!
One of the few means coming up here, I saw just another mini-van that close if no do not pass the path / road that is partly paved!
After another good walk in the woods, and several stops ...... look what I found just before dell'alpeggio ..... a nice MUSHROOM ! This is even more photogenic than the other time!
And here's the first sight of dell'Alpone Curiglia!
But for the moment we pull straight up and we just go over to the church of the Madonna della Guardia!
where we had a picnic with our paninozzi of Curiglia and stuff! And relaxing place with a beautiful view of the valley (I did not put the photos because there was too much light and a bit of haze and did not do). However the church there are a couple of tables and a fountain, perfect for a picnic!
inside ..... The church was closed but the door has a grate without glass, too bad ..... but if one needs a little prayer for the legs fan giacomo giacomo ?
Vista on the other side looking towards the mountains you can see Monte Lema with the restaurant, the antenna and a giant cross and I think the other is an observatory. Beyond that is Switzerland. At the top of Mount Lema seems to me that we can get even with a cable car that's on the other side of the mountain and there is a trail that connects Mount Lema in here where we are and in fact there were people who came down from there !!..... a good idea for next time!
A resident dell'Alpone! Make BEEEEEEEEEEE!
dall'Alpone Vista .....
dall'Alpone Another view from this closer to the bar ......... if we knew before there was a bar! We stopped to drink the same because it has a nice terrace ..... is very homely, not because it's like we entered a private kitchen ...... but the lady is very kind and is the same one that manages the refuge where you can stay to sleep, you have to bring a sleeping bag and cooking, is not like the super lodges hotels! Maybe next time I wake up with this view must be amazing!
begin to leave the village .....
The road follows the line of the last houses, a little before and a little behind ....
And here it begins to descend into the woods ...
Last viewed dell'Alpone, virtually all the huts are arranged in rows along the top of this natural amphitheater that faces south! A little paradise!
into the forest you have to follow the path or best guess where there is a path through the field giant ferns! Note that Ali is standing just a step or two below me! Here is working as a researcher of ferns ....... ummmm hard work!
Watch out among the ferns of the natives live much Paciocco, just like this here that we met! Notice the skirt of ferns typical of local custom!
Walk and walk in the woods, at some point we arrive at a hut that seems completely lost ...... well populated but no one was cute .... almost like a cabin of fairy tales!
And the location is even better! Look at that view! WOWWWW!
After another long time in the woods we return to the village and the walk ends.
beautiful walk and beautiful places!
Greetings and kisses from the memory of the mountains!
next time with more pictures of holidays and other trips in August!

Should We Remove Steam From Cooker

since last August ...

Here it is August and it's raining and it ...... ..... cold is normal because it's winter does not seem normal to warm ....... then I think what I did last August! A nice barbeque! Watch here as well I smoked with my helpers ..... one on the right works as a vacuum cleaner! Haaa that good meal sausage! I is already watering just thinking about it! Here are just short of pork sausages, beef, lamb, venison, chicken, and maybe something else but I already know are not as good as the sausage and I do not have the courage to try them! Bathing in the paddling pool! Look what I found under the mushroom! The Smurf kiwi!
And here in the advanced version .... the piscinona! Note the wake of hydrofoil that leaves me behind! Son is fast! At times I was not in the photo-timer so hard if you are in front of you and you be the paresis smile! Then go for a walk in Forcora! First stop at paninozzo bar! All our walks start with a sandwich! Never let it go in negative calories! Second stop at the fountain to fill the water bottle of fresh water pure forcorissima!
A nice drink that salami sandwich makes me thirsty!
Another stop watching the view from the last hut before the wood ...... blessed them look that good!
and walk, walk .......
...... our heroes arrive at the magical pond! Magic because despite all the trouble I and my cousins \u200b\u200bwe never finished inside! And then there are huge dragonflies!
At the rock look what a view!
The Tina who admires the view from the foot of the rock in these times ...... think of the meaning of life and other philosophical stuff .....
We see almost the entire lake! Lago Maggiore if someone does not know me ..... it's hard not to read anyone's blog! However, you can also see the castles and Cannero Cannobio.
..... guess what is this??
a mushroom!! (Thought of Tina "an idiot")
See here I also found true of a mushroom! I do feel it ??!!! Yes! What do you want to happen!
end of the walk! Now a bit of relaxation under the trees for those who have warm and the sun for me!
Enjoying the view! The church, Mount Paglione and farther I do not remember what it's called that hill .....
Macclesfield Back in a beautiful lakeside promenade in the evening ... ..... girls posing ...... and tourists with the obligatory photos with Madonna! Finally, the beach is free and you can swim!
Tina Go!
Dog mesmerized by stick!
And the last look at the lake before sunset .... with the last ferry of the day ....... how romantic!
's proximity to many more photos of last August! Why here so there is nothing new for now!
