And yet more...




The mountain view is in the Dolomites, looking from the Hotel Rosengarten in Toblach, South Tyrol (the first overnight on my road trip); the charming old building is one of the many picturesque corners in Estavayer-le-lac, Switzerland; finally, there is a photo of a plaque on the wall of a building next to the Villa Diodati. It reads, in translation: Lord Byron/English poet/author of "The Prisoner of Chillon"/lived in the Villa Diodati in 1816 and wrote the Third Canto of "Childe Harold" here.
