Italy: 5 Reasons to Visit Lake Garda
Last summer we took a trip to Italy, the first as a family and the first doing this kind of trip. In the past we've enjoyed all-inclusive trips to hotels all over Europe and beyond, but with the girls getting older and not willing to share a room with us, let alone a bed, we looked at different options.
