When traveling Europe by car




We solve parking issues by staying in nearby and smaller towns.





Auer/Ora, Italy is such a place. 

It's an easy off/on from the main highway, 

the E 45 coming from the Brenner Pass. 






Ora/Auer is located just south of the Italian town of Bolzano


It is a jumping off point to the Dolomites and the Italian region of the Trento Adige, where both Italian and German is spoken.







Bolzano is a charming town.   It has a bustling, colorful market square, great shopping and a most excellent museum, which houses the famous 5,300 year old Iceman.

The market is open every day, summer and winter.


It is also the largest Christmas Market in Italy. 







Small towns are perfect for wandering into side streets and old historic sections.  





Their teacher gave them an assignment.




This was the scene they were to paint, 
a lesson in perspective. 






leisurely walks provide lots of pretty scenery..








The "Amadeus" Hotel is conveniently located in the middle of town. It is an excellent hotel, featuring regional dishes, easy parking and excellent service.  

I have the wanderlust again. 
Maybe you do too.
