a weekend in Brescia


after months, no, years of hearing how beautiful the land of Brescia was, our neighbors Valeria and Marco organized a trip to show us the finest this mideastern region of Italy has to offer. It all started with a slab of Polenta.....


the next day, a passaggiata to admire Lago di Garda, Italy's largest lake, 200km across (according to Marco)
and a mere "puddle" according to Valeria

picturesque Verona

family portrait, include panciona!

Visiting Solive Winery

Luca reading outloud to Mati and Alberto about the wineries history.

nice!

just when Luca was getting bored, a forklift was discovered!

lots of gorgeous wine to stock

and a vintage tractor Luca's size!

Finally, some refreshment
A beautiful weekend, and the best part, Luca slept the whole ride home!
Thank you Este's and Nonni di Alberto for hosting us so graciously!
