I bought some train tickets! Yesterday I traveled from Milano to Sirmione, an historic town at the end of a finger-of-a-peninsula that juts into the south end of Lago Di Garda – Lake Garda. I explored the town in the pouring rain, umbrella in one hand, camera in the other hand, soaking wet shoes on my feet.
Sirmione’s centro storico – historic center – features the requisite castle, Rocca Scaligera, with swans swimming the moat, and roman ruins a 15 minute walk away, Grotte di Catullo – the Grottoes of Catullo. It was a highly touristic area, even with the drenching rainfall. A wet afternoon and a sunny morning there were enough for me.
