Bolzano 2 Cortina

I left Bolzano this morning at 10 AM and got to Cortina d'Ampezzo at 2 PM.

OK, OK so I made a wrong turn and had to back track a few miles. Shyte happens.

Here are some photos taken today.

 I most places in Italy and Switzerland birds are tame and trust people
so the hang out and pick crumbs of food left by consumers
They are so funny
 A supermarket in Bolzano




 Leaving Bolzano












 Starting the long ascend into the Alps




































 A typical glacier lake


 Had to wait a few minutes due to mountain road repair





 The air's getting thin







































 I had to stop and pee, no one around so................



 An abandoned shack



 Yes it's snow


 One of many hair pin turns I had to make








 The roads are getting tighter and tighter





 Coming into Cortina, an old Roman aqua duct
 Looking out of the hotel room window



 A cozy little Alpine chalet room

 

I will take more photos around Cortina tomorrow

Meanwhile, thanks for popping in

Ciao, buona giornata,

Now buona notte,

David
