A Break in the Storm

With a mid-afternoon break in the 16 hour storm, we ferried to Menaggio for a late lunch and a walk about with some window shopping. Our conclusions on the three villages we visited along Lake Como are that we would stay in Menaggio if we came again, mainly because that's where most of the locals lived, offering visitors a more authentic experience compared to the places that cater mainly to tourist with all manner of shops and eateries. The highlight of the day was the sight the Alps dusted with snow from the storm. Below are pictures from our visit of Menaggio.
