On the veranda - Lecco, Italy

     Sometimes I think that just posting a picture will communicate the total feeling of a place and time, but I know that is not true. The above photo was taken on the veranda of a bed and breakfast between Lecco and Bellagio on Lake Como, Italy. It is a simple candid shot of me. The true story behind it is how amazed I was to be there and see the lake. We were getting ready to go out to dinner. As an American it was just about time to eat - maybe 6:30 pm - which is about an hour and a half before the Italians go to dinner. The picture for me reflects a different place, a foreign land, different habits, strange but interesting culture. And, I know it says very little to anyone else.
