How pretty is that picture?!

I found my dream place...

This is the most awesome, spectacular, beautiful place in the world!  Jeff, Frank, and I could not believe how beautiful this place is!  You will have to judge for yourselves once you see the pictures but neither the Hamptons nor Cannes can compare to this beauty.  I'm surprised more people have not discovered this place.

We went for an hour trip around the lake.  The lake is so clean, we could see right through the bottom of the lake. We were told one could see through 7 - 8 meters to the bottom.  That they do not allow used water back into the lake must be the key.

The mountains circling the lake add to the grandeur of the scenery.  Little pockets of villages add to quaintness.  That they have gastronomique restaurants adds to the allure.  I can live here during the summer, in New York during the spring and fall, and Manila during the winter!  Now, to get the means to allow me to do so...

As mom says, it's free to dream...this area, though, is a dream realized.
