Varenna

To have a look at the famous lake Como I took a train from Milan to Varenna in the morning. The journey takes about an hour and costs €7,10. The train departed 30 minutes late because that’s how trains work in Italy.

My plan was to take a bus to Lugano. But it was shattered by the Italian siesta. Both places that sell bus tickets are closed until 4PM although the buses run.

Siesta

I waited until 4PM and took a bus towards Milan to the town of Como instead because it was too late to go to Lugano.
