Bellagio

On Sunday, Anteneh invited me up to Como, and we headed out to Bellagio and Faggeto Lario with his friend Kal. On my way up I ran into this Boy Scout troup (OK, they're the Italian equivalent, but I don't know the name of the organization) at the Bovisa train station.

We walked up to the fountain in Como to take a coffee before heading out on the bus.

Bellagio also is a pretty major ferry stop for tourists.

We walked out on the seawall of the harbor at the tip of the peninsula, where you can see all around the lake.

We had a kind tourist take a group photo! See I am wearing my six Euro shoes... they are working out!

The harbor is quite charming, and there is a beach there so you can swim in Bellagio too. It's a sad little beach, though.

The town itself is quite charming, with lots of shaded streets that aren't totally packed with tourists. You just have to get above the lake line a bit!
