We took the train to Lake Como's southern tip at the town of Como. Here we needed to transfer to a boat for a trip to our destination, Bellagio. We rolled the short distance to the docks and noticed a ferry ready to leave. Inquiring on whether they were headed to Bellagio, they nodded but indicated a ticket booth. So Cal dropped all the luggage with Virginia Ann and ran to get a ticket. Meanwhile, the boat capitan told Virginia Ann that the next boat out was actually on the other side of the ticket booth. So Virginia Ann began rolling two large suitcases, two PC bags, a Camera backpack, and her briefcase toward the boat. Cal securing tickets ran out of the ticket booth past Virginia Ann. Fortunately Virginia Ann was able to slow Cal down and the trip up the lake began.
We stayed at the Hotel Bellagio which is located in the town of Bellagio.

The lake of Como is of glacial origin and occupies the cavity cut out by the glacier of the Adda that, in the quaternarian epoque extended over the two southern branches of the lake before coming out in the Brianza leaving there morenic hills and other small lakes. Its passage is marked by erratic boulders which are frequently found especially on the central promontory of the lake. It is the third-largest subalpine lake but the deepest of all of them, having a maximum depth of 410 metres.
