A day at Lake Bracciano

Today, we drove to Bracciano, a volcanic lake just north of Rome. With a cloudless blue sky, the still air and the openess of the space around us absorbing any sound, it reminded me how much I love to live here.

Of all the dozens of exotic places I lived in, I never enjoyed a country as much as Italy. The country, its sights, its lust for life, its food, its people. Nothing seems to compare to Italy.

Especially on a day like this. With my girls in the early spring sunshine. Wondering on the shore of a lake. And finding a perfect spot to lunch, on a lazy Saturday afternoon.

I wished I could send you all the happiness I feel.
