At the beigining of June we visited Italy, staying three nights in Brenzone on the eastern shore of Lake Garda, and three nights in Montegrotto Terme, about 50Km west of Venice.

Both places were very different. Brenzone offers fantastic scenery and Montegrotto Terme spa waters and somehow a more Italian feel. The tiny railway station in Montegrotto Terme was adjacent to our hotel, and being only about an hour away, we decided to spend a day in Venice -it never ceases to fascinate. The images of Venice are presented in Monochrome because someow it just felt right.
