I remember going to Lake Como once with a bunch of students and someone said that a Star Wars movie was filmed there. I think it’s true… Maybe I should have checked before writing this! Nice picture, beautiful memories.
Hah! I didn’t know that – but it seems to be true! Villa del Balbianello, in Star Wars II.
But I do remember lots of folks talking about Clooney’s retreat right around the same spot..
Sure! And thanks for the notice It is kind of fairy tale or “otherworldly” like at that lake – probably the vegetation that creates some of the atmosphere. Along w the light and mountains.
We were fortunate enough to stay at Lago di Como for a few days. It was fabulous! Thanks for bringing back fond memories.
Oh that’s nice! It’s so peaceful and relaxing there – Bellagio, Mennagio, and the pre-alps around.. a perfect place for some hiking and enjoying life!
