WELCOME

OMG - I forgot my passport

These photos are better than mine.

     Sirmiome on Lake Garda in northern Italy is a fun and interesting place. Because we had a leisurely drive from Lecco (nearer to Belagio) to Verona airport to fly out to SFO we took a side trip to Sirionme. We walked the old streets, visited the church and had lunch at a sidewalk cafĂ©.
     On our way back to the car I reached into my pocket to get the car keys. Yikes! In my pocket was the key to the hotel safe in Lecco. Our passports were safely locked away.
     Well, that meant retracing our path back -- actually a long way -- to the hotel. The owner was waiting for us. She had even called the airport to leave us a message. We got the passports and turned around and headed to Verona.  We know the road well between Lecco and Verona. Some of it was back road and some highway. 
     I will never do that again - at least in Lecco.
