Gorgeous view! I wonder how my travelhunds and toddler would do in the MINI to get there? Might have to take a train ride instead. I’m enjoying your posts! Keep traveling and writing!
I’m so happy that you like the picture! And yes, Locarno is also located on Lake Maggiore. It’s in Switzerland and Baveno is in Italy. And the lake is beautiful… :)
Baveno is the place I first fell in love with Italy and its a romance that has already last 15 years and counting so thanks for reminding me of this heavenly place! Happy travels!
