A new adventure awaits

Our last three visits to Lugano we stayed mostly on hillsides, up winding roads with some pretty stunning views.

Well, we have a view of the lake where we are now, but the getting here is completely different.

Basically, while the apartment is quite elegant and refined, as well as being in a beautiful area (not that we’ve had a chance to explore yet; more about that tomorrow), we have to drive a heavily traveled road past probably the largest shopping center in the Lugano region to get from here to Ramesha’s family home.

This list of shops gives you some idea. And we’re just days away from Christmas!

Yikes! 😱
