                           Off to Merano 


We were delighted to wake up to snow on the peaks.  By the time we had major repairs on our bikes completed (7 out of 8  brakes changed - well done Girolibero!), the rain had disappeared and we headed off on our merry way. 


Enjoying the snowy peaks and the apple orchards.


 A roadside shrine.


Back along the Adige River - the bike paths are beautiful.


A little folly (wind vane) at our lunch stop in Kastelbell.


The magnificent downhill run into Merano.


A covered bridge just outside Merano.


Our hotel in Merano.


The Kurhaus (concert hall) in Art Nouveau style, or Liberty as the Italians call it, in the lovely spa town of Merano.


Shopping street, Merano.
