Mother's Day in Lake Como and mom found the garden of her dreams at Villa d'Este...
This Renaissance Garden was something I had only seen in my garden books and it absolutely took my breath away.
I had imagined that some day I would visit Hotel Villa d'Este, especially after seeing the movie - A Month by the Lake - with Vanessa Redgrave. I had imagined this for years and years...It was simply unforgetable!!! You breathe in all the history as you are there of all the Royalty and Movie Stars that have stayed in the hotel (which was once owned by a Russian Duke and Duchess) and you feel as if you are in another time...
