Hi Everyone!

Sorry, I didn't post last week. We were out all day and did not get back until quite late.

We had a wonderful holiday in the Dolomites, aside from the horrible drive back...what should have been 7 hours took 12. It was like a bad movie that never ended, and you were trapped in the theatre. I am sure you all know I love the beach but I think this is my favourite area of Italy so far. At least there are lakes to swim in.

Over the last 10 days we visited wineries, I saw Ötzi the ice man (so cool!!), went on beautiful hikes, ate all the pasta, gelato, pizza, knödel and everything else thrown at us. We celebrated my birthday and also relaxed at the pool. I did not want to leave. I felt so alive despite being active and getting up early.

I took Monday off of exercise to recover but last night I went to the gym. Today I had planned an extra bike ride or walk but so far it is super rainy. So we wll see.

I hope everyone had a good week or so and I am looking forward to catching up.

The photo (unedited 🙀) is from Lago di Braies. We got up early and walked around the lake and then did a hut-to-hut hike. It was so beautiful. I can imagine how crazy it gets in peak season. We were lucky it was quiet. Maybe I will share some more pictures and experiences over the next days.

Fill me in friends, what is going on?
