Fiona and Steve took the ferry back, and Brad and I stayed in Bellagio to walk through the gardens at Villa Melzi. The weather was warm and slightly overcast. We walked down the flower-filled lakeside promenade about a half mile to the entrance of Villa Melzi,
built in 1810 for Count Melzi. This was the first example of an English garden on the lake.

It was peaceful, quiet, and felt like we had the gardens to ourselves. We had a lovely walk through the park-like grounds.

Ahh, those photos bring back memories . . .
We really enjoyed Villa Melzi too - it seemed so serene.
