Lots of “ohs” and “ahs” today when we visited Oleificio Tavernini in Gargnano (www.oleificiogargnano.it), a wonderful place to buy wine and olive oil products, that are produced right there on site. We got shampoo, soap, wine, more soap, oil, shower gel and – not to forget – soap! Our hosts Beate & Harald and Sandra shared those locations with us and we were glad to have our private tour guides today to make sure we’ll find our way.

Another stop was at “Aquisto”, a store that sells bags of all sizes made of old sails! When I walked into this store, one of the handbags called my name , so I had it have it! Check them out at “www.kevlove.it”

And our last stop was at Sandra’s house, where we stopped by when dropping her off on the way home. Not only is the house a true gem, a 500 year old sheep barn that she remodeled into a beautiful vacation home, but her garden made us not want to leave anymore

And last but not least: magic Gargnano
