We went to a little cafe and had cappuccino then went to the little town of Cenobbia for lunch.  We had pasta with a crabmeat sauce….delicious.  Then we drove to the grocery store and loaded up.  Even after lunch and being full we bought enough for three weeks for Cox’s Army!  We are only going to be here five days!  We had drinks on the patio overlooking Lake Como and then rested a bit before dinner.  Our dinner was in a glasses in room overlooking the Lake as the sun was going down.  The service was excellent and the food divine.  Andy and I had fried lake fish and shoestring zucchini fries.  White and red trout, sardines and something else…with tartar sauce.  Suzanne had horseradish encrusted salmon with poppy seeds, Suzy had grilled asparagus with a fried egg on top and fish eggs.  Bill had a pasta.  For dessert, we shared a chocolate volcano cake with fresh berries and vanilla ice cream.  We all agreed we would eat there again.  By the way, there are 109 steps from the street to our front door.  Up and down a couple of times a day works off a few calories…I hope.  

Tomorrow we are off by ferry to Ballagio at the head of the Lake for lunch and some retail therapy…shopping!  Hoping for a pretty, sunny day like today.  Buona Notte!
