I say a touch of Italy because we really only spent an afternoon in the country. We hopped off the Bernina Express in a town called Tirano and had lunch. Both Rick and I had pizza which was less saucy than I expected, but I think I'm too used to Americanized pizza. Regardless, it was good. We walked around Tirano a bit and then hopped back on the bus for a glimpse at scenic Italy.
After a few hours we stopped in Lecco along
Lake Como. Lake Como is Italy's 3rd largest lake and the deepest (1300 feet!) and very popular. Apparently George Clooney has a villa along the shore, but we didn't see him anywhere. We did, however, have some very delicious gelato! After exploring the beautiful lake for a while, we hopped back on the bus and headed back into Switzerland--more on the Swiss later!
