MORCOTE (Part 1) - WHAT A TRUNK !!

I love to shop in italian supermarkets.   Food, Food, Food - a feast for the eyes.  The varieties of cheese, hams, pasta, fresh baked pizzas, olives like these .......

 We paid a visit to an old friend who is lives 6 months a year in Paris and most of summer in Switzerland.  No no, not up in the mountains.  She lives just 20 mins from the italian border - in Morcote.  Usually, we would drive across to the Italian side to shop or for dinner. It is like another world.  Here is an example........

 Just look at the length
