Wedding in the mountains and a tale of two towns and the lake in between.

It has been a long time since my last post, however a lot has happened since then. To start with I have had to finally move outside London which was quite uncomfortable for me at the beginning. I have often boasted in the past that I could not live anywhere outside London, but as they say “change is the only constant thing”.

In the spirit of change sweeping everywhere and everyone (a new government in Nigeria my home country, Britain’s exit from the European union and with it a change in the Prime Minister and Donald Trump winning the republican nomination), I have moved into a new office which would be the head office for all my operations and as such would ensure that I regularly update my blog. It has been difficult doing this from home which had for a while doubled as my office.

To my blog, someone has advised that it be travel advisory instead because most of my blogs have been on my travels, well the jury is still out on that but meanwhile, I would continue to dump my thoughts here as well as journals of my travels and pictures from my collective.

We were invited sometime in June by a wonderful couple to their wedding in Italy. I had never been to the country before so I said yes as soon as we got the invite, in this case I was not going to let my wife give any reasons why we could not go, I had to visit Italy. The bride to be had regaled us with a story of her visit to the wedding location as a kid which was an area known as Malcesine on the border between Verona and Brescia, and how enthralled she was with the mountains and lake. At the end of the story, I was convinced that come June 22^nd I would be enjoying the sunshine and the scenery of Limón Sul Garda ( that’s were we got a hotel and a town on the Brescia side of the Lake Garda which separates Limóne Sul Garda from Malcesine which was in Brescia on the other side of the lake.

For any traveller with interest in photography, this area is the perfect setting. It is a mixture of mountains and sea, beautiful but ancient architecture, tasty pizza and antique shops. The mountains on either side and the rays of sunlight peeping through gives an almost surreal atmosphere. I was glad I took my camera and as expected I captured some amazing views. Recommended travel destination any day.
