Default Pics from Italy trip

Just came back from 3 weeks and 3200 miles driving through Tuscany and Umbria, can't think of any better ways of spending time

The car was easily big enough for all the camping gear, just needed some fiddling getting it all in efficiently

Just thought I'd post some of the car photos up:

Looks great.
I'm hoping to drive to Lake Garda next year.
No chance of camping though. There's more chance of the other half sleeping in the boot than there is in a tent.

Great pics, great way to travel.

How much did the trip cost you, just out of curiosity. Thinking of doing a similar trip with the missus next summer.

I was at lake Garda last week! We stayed at Riva Del Garda but can't remember the hotel, one of the major chains really nice.
A couple of us went for a tunnel run at 5am then up over the mountains through Stelvio to the black forest.
Worth the trip, Northern Italy has some fantastic roads I wouldn't go any further South than Modena!

We were in Limone in the summer. We flew over though.
How long did it take you to get over and which route did you take down?
Great place. I'd love to go down on the motorbike as well.
I couldn't believe the other half was up for it when I suggested taking the car so I think I need to strike while the iron is hot and get it sorted.
