All of our days have been so magical but I think this day might have been my favorite of the whole trip!

While we were in our cooking class on the first day, someone mentioned doing this boat ride to see all the villas around Lake Como with a stop in a famous villa that was featured in Casino Royale. We had a free day so we decided to check it out. What really sold me was the beautiful wooden boat they use. I was all in!

It was a beautiful day and the perfect time for a boat ride on Lake Como. I had no idea what to expect from the villa tour, but once we got there I realized it was the most beautiful place I have ever been. Pictures (sadly) don't do it justice but take my word for it when I say it was drop-dead stunning.

We spent some time walking around, taking photos and getting a tour and I really didn't want to leave! On the return, Andrew and I sat at the top of the boat and I don't think I've been that calm and relaxed in a while! I could have spent the whole day out on the back just riding around the lake. I miss it so much already!

After our boat ride we went back into town and got ready for dinner. We decided to go back to the restaurant where we spent our first day (the cooking class) and it was just as good the second time around!

P.S. Vlogs from our first days are live! See day 1 / day 2 / day 3 / day 4!
