Passo Gardena
Its not easy to say anything about the Passo
Gardena that’s not Wow! Gobsmacking, mindboggling, or just out of this world.
It’s a 360-degree landscape that’s so mindboggling impressive it hurts.
Impossible to take in. It’s a brain overload that
turns you into a gibbering 1970s hippie high on
weed, and all you can say is, Wow, just wow!
It looks like the American west but with Italian
cafes and luxury boutique hotels.
Life doesn’t have to be tough, stop and admire
the view for long enough and someone will
appear with tables, chairs, and a choice of
coffee and pastries.
Things keep getting better once over the top
and into the valley beyond.
Did I just die and go to heaven?
