Bert and I took the train over the Alps and saw this beautiful lake that was fed by a glacier. Perhaps that is why it is so blue. There actually some people skating on it which surprised me since it is in such a remote area.
The train goes up to 2300 meters and after going up it uses this ramp-like structure to descend into the valley.
We ended up in Tirano, Italy where we came upon this old building and were so impressed with the huge doors. It would be interesting to see if they take this building down or renovate it, since that seems to be the norm. I guess that's why they have buildings still standing from the 16 and 17th centuries.
This old cathedral was quite impressive but we were unable to get inside.
Still another picture taken in Tirano, Italy.
