Day one: buon giorno Malcesine!

I was up late last night – blogging 🙂 – and I slept in a bit and stumbled off in search of coffee and breakfast, in that order.

My spiffy AirBnB apartment is right next to the “old town”, and so in I went.

Malcesine old town – no cars, just a maze of twisty little passages, all different…

I took a few random turns, examined a few ristorante menus, and then there it was, breakfast nervana!

Une caffe Americana, per favore, e un crepe Malcesine di Lago (prosciutto, cheese, and various greens). They made both while I watched, mmmm… I think my breakfast path has been set. Along with ubiquitous WiFi of course.

Plenty of people out and about; predominant tourist nationality is German, with a smattering of US, Dutch, French and whatnot. Everyone friendly. Good caffe will do that 🙂

sweet vibe in the old town

And so now I had to find my way back … fortunately my place is near the fort, and the fort is on the highest point, so all I had to do was walk uphill. Ciao e avanti!
