Lugano

A short trip from Lake Como and we were in Switzerland. We stopped for lunch in the small town of Lugano. The scenery was much the same as Como.

The view was absolutely beautiful.

Here is another picture of the lake.

And another view with the Swiss flag flying on a boat, just to prove I actually was in Switzerland.

This is a recreation of the Church of San Carlo of Four Fountains of Rome floating on Lake Lugano. Why? I'm not quite sure.

Here is a view of the Swiss Alps.

This is a polenta maker we found outside of a restaurant. Polenta is the traditional food of my Italian family. Growing up, I used to have to stir the polenta over a stove. This little contraption is pretty neat. Needless to say, when I saw this, we had to stop in to try the polenta. It was really good.
