It’s exactly like a bus, but it’s a boat...

Lake Maggiore (Italy)

A bracing and sunny morning.
The last clouds are like small, shy, white sheep, which run away in a blue prairie.


The public transport boats go from island to island, stopping also at various piers on the mainland.
It takes only 5 minutes from stop to stop, exactly like a city bus...


I think the little town we can see in front of us is Baveno, a little on the right, not visible in this picture, there must be our first destination, Isola Madre (Mother Island or the Mother of all Islands...at least of all the islands of this microscopic archipelago...), we’ll be there in a handful of minutes anyway...

c'es comme le bus, mais le charme en plus. L'impression de partir en vacances tous les jours.
Une très belle photo aux couleurs douces.

Public transport on that lake is one of the most charming in the world. A fine image of setting off on a day's journey of discovery.
