How fitting that one of the most beautiful places on earth is situated in a city called "stresa". To me, this is one of the greatest Italian jokes. Lago Maggiore is absolutely breath-taking. If anyone leaves there with "stresa", they definitely need to have their head examined. This day trip was just what the doctor ordered after such a hectic first week in Milan.
Lago Maggiore hosts the Isloe di Borromeo or as it was known in Heminway's Farwell To Arms, Iles de Borromees. Makes me want to good back and re-read that classic!
