Trip to the Italian Alps part 1

[pilninggas]

Some photos from my 2 1/2 week trip down to the Sudtirol / Alto Adige. Would have been longer but i have had some dreadful weather at times (also 32 degrees in Trieste and swimming in the Adriatic).

I have done just under 3000 miles and the XJ6 was fantastic.

Anyway actually took some photos this time (gave me chance to do a few of the passes twice - once for the ride, once for the record!)

The pic before last looks like "Passo dello Stelvio" in Italy, is that it?

Stelvio Pass - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

I recall that Top Gear featured it several years ago....
