Lazise to Germany
 

Lazise is in the province of Verona, Italy. Lazise whose name comes from "laceses", which means "place on the lake". The oldest part of the town, clearly medieval in origin, is surrounded by the walls built by the Della Scala family in the 14th century. Lazise is an enchanting place, especially Piazza V. Emanuele and the small port, which is still crowded with fishing boats.  Lazise has become one of the most popular resorts on the "Riviera of the Olive Trees".
Taking a break with Father Manfred, just to sit and listen to the history of this area as Father Manfred explained it to me was was a joy.

Getting ready to leave to go back to Germany

The Hotel Casablanca is a family run business. This is the mother who came out to give us a gift of a bottle of groppa before we left.

Leaving, one last view of the Lake
