Lake Como Redux

Day 1
Prosecco consumed: 5 glasses
Headache from Prosecco: 1
George sightings: 2, though only adverts
Naps: 1

Day 2
Prosecco consumed: 3 glasses
Headache from Prosecco: 0 - YAY!
George sightings: 0 - BOO!
Dog poop stepped in while wearing sandals: 1 instance
Rain: All afternoon
Naps: 1
CNN watched because of rain: 3 hours. Am caught up on world news.

Day 3
Prosecco consumed: 4 glasses
Headache from Prosecco: 0…either 5 glasses is too many or I’m building up a tolerance
George sightings: 1, only an advert, again
Rain: ALL DAY
Naps: 1
CNN watched: Too many hours to mention. Did you know that Shah Rukh Khan is a major Bollywood star? And that he never kisses in his films? And that he has to get his abs drawn on for scenes in which he is shirtless? Neither did I, but I do now! And so do YOU!

Day 4
Prosecco consumed: 5 glasses
Headache from Prosecco: 0
Headache from massive head-cold that arrived in the night: 1 (let's not blame the Prosecco, shall we? It was purely medicinal at that point)
George sightings: 0
Rain: Incessant
Naps: 2 (morning and afternoon, due to head-cold and general ennui)
Nose blowing: Constant
CNN watched: I will not even tell you, though each time I woke up from sleeping the Shah Rukh Khan special was playing AGAIN. Stupid looping tv.

Despite the above report, Lake Como WAS really lovely, and we hope to return when the sun is actually OUT and we don’t have to leap over puddles and dog poop. I'm also convinced the George didn't want to come out and play because of the weather. Surely, he'll throw out an invitation to the villa when the sun is more obedient. More later, as the jet lag subsides…
