Dear Aprilia,

Good bye, Selamat tinggal, Au revoir, Sayonara, Ciao.

You're in good hands now.

Welcome to Isola dei Pescatori (Fisherman's Island)!

Over the weekend, we went to Isola dei Pescatori... one of the islands on Lake Maggiore, northern Italy.

We left Geneva around 9 am, drove through Bern and Luzern, then to Locarno, and took the lake drive to Baveno. We arrived in Baveno around 6 pm, left the car there and took a boat to the Island.

We would've arrived earlier, if it wasn't for this massive traffic jam in Uri. One hour in the car moving slowwwwlyyyy... for what could have been a 15 min ride...

I can just imagine how the conversation went between the couple in this car.

Wife: 'Honey, i knew we shouldn't have bought this car!'
Husband: 'It's ok honey, see? i told you we could bring everything with this car.. The boat, our bikes, the kids and the dog! Problem solved!'

The passenger behind me was obviously bored.

Locarno!

Ahhh, Baveno at last!

The day was beautiful one second, and then... it hailed the next!

One of the hail stones that came with the rain.

Isola dei Pescatori - The island on the left

Charming..!

The island opposite ours (yes, it's now 'ours') LOL

Must be a lost Bruneian fan hehehe

St. Catarina

We took the ferry from Laveno (which was on the other side of the lake) and went back to Intra. We then drove from Intra back to Baveno.

My baby's first ride on a ferry (how cute) :-)
*i'm talking abt my car* durr

We found this awesome hiker's path on the way to Simplon Pass

We decided to take the mountain route of Simplon Pass instead of busy Bern and Luzern. Good call!

nice. oh i mean, bad.

Give a man a fish and he'll eat for a day. Teach a man to fish and he'll eat for a lifetime.

Today we went fishing at Lac du Vallon, in Haute-Savoie (FR). It was raining and windy... I didn't think we would catch anything, but we did!! Two small fishes... and ALMOST a third fish. It was homongous, almost broke my fishing rod. LOL. But it got away.. And the whole thing happened in 10 minutes...

Fishing on Le Rhone.

It ain't great fishing without a fold up chair complete with a drink holder. :p

Can you see toni?

We didn't catch any fish, but maybe next time! :-)
