Orta San Giulio is fantastic. So beautiful, so ancient and so interesting. arrangements have now been made as much as possible at this stage. Reached agreement with my local partner, Stefano, to do the rest on site. Visited Isla San Giulio (the island 400 metres off the coast) today. 15th Century monastery which still has a silent order of nuns resident. I must hold my tongue on my thoughts on religion. I also swam in the lake. Had to, didn't I? I can't really flog the value of my swimtour if I didn't - even though it was raining at the time. Stefano, the sensible one, declined my invitation to join me.
