Tonight finds us near Val de Gardena, Italy in a mobbed campsite. It is the perfect location for lots of hiking as we are not going to move the car for the next three days. This section of the Dolomites is incredible!! This is one of the biggest holiday weekends of the Italian year and it shows! It is like the 4th of July in the States, everyone is on the road and in the mountains. But it's OK, we have a private little site and tonight cooked Cordon Bleu, gnocchi and had it with a big fresh salad. The wi-fi here is free and works great.
Today we saw Ötzi, the Iceman in the Bolzno Museum of Archeology. He lived 5,300 years ago and his body, tools and clothing were preserved because he died in a crevice which later glaciers passed over. He is the only human remnant we have from the copper age. It was a fantastic visit and Bobbie loved it too. Bolzano is a great city with no cars in the old town downtown. We ate street food of pizza and bratwurst and loved very bite.
Love to all back home, we miss you and look forward to seeing you soon.
