"The road to Stelvio" (Lake of Como, Italy)



My mother is grew up in the small village "Cremia"
at the Lago di Como. Many small tunnel of the Searoad
are typical for this region. My grandparents lived in an
old house were original was an monastery with thickest walls.
They spent the summertime with their cows, donkey and chickens
above in the mountains. I wish I could travel with a timemaschine
to this place. They look out like timetunnels, or not?
