Above & Left: What a perfect Sunday! We drove to Brunate, above Como and hiked into a Rifugio for some local fare - cheese, polenta, pizzocheri, wild pig and wine - enjoyed it while sitting next to the fire - it was freezing so being by the fire was heaven.  Then hiked up to the crest with a view of lake Como behind us and the Swiss Alps further back  - che bella! Tony loved the experience  - we are so lucky that  he is just such a great sport and so happy to do things with us that we love!
Below: A stroll through the grounds of Villa Reale - the Royal Villa of Monza. Baci even went swimming... 6 Gennaio
