I went para sailing. That is a blast. We got to float above the lake for about 45 minutes just cruising around. It was the first time in my life where I was able to run across the water without sinking. It is a must see attraction if you are in the North of Italy.
Italian food is absolutely fantastic.
I can't remember a bad meal. A typical meal includes several courses and you can expect to be there for hours. We had a local spots that we went to. It was normal for the owner to come and sit at the table and shoot the breeze with you. The really nice thing about eating out in Italy is the price.
