Popular Post Daz Posted June 22, 2019 Popular Post Share Posted June 22, 2019 Well our trip across Europe finally started on Friday. Left uk on Friday 640am Euro tunnel then a 6 hr drive to Baden Baden. Baden was a real surprise. We stayed at Leonardo Royal which had excellent parking and the location was 10 min walk to the centre via a walk through a park along the river. Had a lovely meal and a few glasses of the local wine. Day 2 a drive through the Black Forest then a blast on the autobahn down to lake Lucern. Black Forest amazing roads really recommend. Arrived a hotel in Weggis lake Lucerne. A very special place. A view from our room. Tomorrow onto lake Como. Booked an apartment in Bellagio.

Daz Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Drove down from Lake Lucerne to Lake Como. Started with a drive around Lake Lucerne then headed down in to Italy via Furka and then Nufenen pass. Susten was closed still which was a shame. Driving the passes was crazy trying to overtake cyclists with motor bike overtaking is at the same time. Not for the faint hearted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daz Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 Got the ferry across from North coast of lake Como to Bellagio. A really beautiful place. Hired a apartment in villa Trotti. Highly recommend. Great parking and has a swimming pool. Now to relax for a few days before drive back. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Porsched eggs Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 Looks awesome, and great weather. black forest is better than the alps IMHO. The weir valley to todtmoos (forgive spelling) is the wildest road I've ever seen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mr pg Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 We're of in 2 weeks to France, Germany, Austria, Italy (Dolomites, Como), Switzerland and back. Caymans are a great tourer (5th year on the trot in our 981CS). Can't agree about the Black Forest. Too many trees! Susten is showing as open now.

Daz Posted June 27, 2019 Author Share Posted June 27, 2019 Yep car has been fantastic. We we originally planned to come home via France and stay in Nancy. We liked Baden Baden so much we have come that way home. Bellagio to Baden Baden in 5 1/2 hrs. Had a good battle with a SL for about a 100 km. Car really eat the autobahn and was really stable a high speed. Have a a great tour. We have our last leg back to UK tomorrow. ☹️ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
