The 5 year anniversary

We had an incredibly busy day today (Thurs)!  Jumped a bus to Lugano to catch another funicular up to Mt. Bre' (925 meters up).  Then came the hike down!  Keeping up with Lori was no easy feat.  All 10 of us met up at a cute little lakeside restaurant in Gandria before splitting up with some of us walking the Olive trail back and some of us taking the ferry back to Lugano.  The walk had stellar views of the lake...and the many lakeside villas!

Tonight was the big anniversary party that included a private boat tour of the lake (complete with many bottles of Prossecco and some antipasti).  From the boat we were evenable to see the castle where Brian and Karen were married 5 years ago:)  The boat then dropped us off at a restaurant lakeside called La Palma for the anniversary banquet.  Great food, great wine, heart-felt toasts and a ton of laughs...an evening to be remembered for sure!
