As I walked by the lake in Lugano, Switzerland I noticed this gate. Then I saw the benches on either side. Before sitting down I decided to take a picture.
It was a pleasant place to rest for a few minutes.

If you’re going to stick benches and a beautiful gate somewhere, why not go all out and put them in front of a truly magnificent view. All you’d need is a little picnic (or gelato?) and you’re sorted.

Meg, you and I must meet one day. The first bench that came to my mind was in a shot taken on Lake Lugano. Seriously … it’s kind of spooky. I couldn’t find it anywhere on this computer and am not at home to dig into my older files. Thanks for taking me back to a lovely moment!

Beautiful photo of gate and benches in Lugano. I kept tossing around Lugano and Luzern for my Swiss destination this summer. Luzern won out. Thanks for liking my Dolomite posts. I am busy doing research for my upcoming hiking trip.
