Very nice!
The temperature have finally reached into the plus here, so theres probably a couple of weeks until its worth to go out and look.

Francesco,

I will go southwest (from Austria), about 3´000 kms and have to use a ferry boat for about 1 hour! :lol:

I´ve been there 9 times until now.
And this is a picture from our first trip in 1975:
