Ferragosto


Today is Ferragosto. This is the main holiday period in Italy.
The streets and highways are crowded with cars, so it is better to choose a quiet place.

Lake Durnholz in the Sarntal / Val Sarentino

A pretty place to sit!

Cheri said...

Beautiful spot!

Well, I think you've found the perfect spot to escape the maddening crowd! The water looks high; I wonder if the road floods when the water rises? It's a beautiful, bucolic scene that makes me want to sit on that bench and go "Ahhhhhh!"

Jack said...

Karl, I will take one end of that bench and you can take the other, and we will turn it around so it faces the water!

Karl said...

Oh Jack, this is a good idea!

Karl said...

No Lowell, the water doesn't rise here...
