Watching the Grand Prix was only part of the adventure. In fact, we actually missed the 125cc race and due to the constant rain we left part way though the final, 500cc race. The trip to the race was via Pontresina and included crossing a number of recently opened Alpine passes. We stayed in Verona for two nights but unfortunately, due to our hunger and late arrival we didn't get to see much of the city.
The final pictures in the series were taken on the ferry crossing Lago de Como between Varenna and Menaggio.
