Verbania Revisited for World Wide Wednesday

12

Sailing the gorgeous lakes of Italy
Watching the clouds filling the sky to affinity…

But not time for the weary
When the land is getting too neary
The Captain yelling “Virata!”
Better do, as he says,
Or you’ll end up singing in “castrata”!

The journey of a thousand miles begins with a single step.” Lao Tzu

When in Verbania

When in Rome
Do as the Romans do
When in Verbania
Hoist the sails
Follow the trails
And shout out “Virata!”

Share each Friday, on your own blog, one photo…or maybe even a gallery of some of your favorite photos that you have taken during the week, that make you smile or that was a great photo capturing opportunity…anything really! And as photographers are often known to say, “The best camera is, the one that you have with you!”
