Pre-Babymoon in Verbania Italy

Last weekend was looking like the last weekend of warm weather so we decided to take a a little pre-baby vacation for the night. 

A hotel with a pool was a must. After a while of searching we found out that outdoor pools aren't so popular in Europe. But we found hotel Zust right over the Italian border in the town of Verbania. 

We loaded up Polly (our car's new name) and headed down South. 


It was a beautiful drive through the mountains and we arrived just in time for lunch. 
 We spent out time reading a relaxing by the pool, 
and enjoying the beautiful scenery, 

 

Zann took a swim while I hung out on the little beach. 


We had afternoon naps and did a lot of reading. Right when we were heading to dinner it started pouring. We found a great little restaurant in the town which was a 2 minute drive away and enjoyed some good old Italian food for dinner then of course gelato for dessert. 

The drive home was not as beautiful. Thankfully Zann is a clam driver and the pouring rain and zero visibility on the top of the Alps did not make his palms sweat nearly as much as mine. We made it back to Zurich Sunday afternoon to watch the first Auburn victory of the season. 


This picture is for Grandmother and a little reminder of the beach house. 

That might have been our last trip just the two of us for a while.
