Today we had what we call "a travel moment", one of those experiences that you want to last forever and that you know you will never forget.
We drove north from here in Bolzano to a tiny town called Castelrotto, poked around a bit, decided we weren't dressed warmly enough and went back to change. It's chilly being up this high in the mountains.
Being up on the Suisi Alm, the largest alpine meadow in Europe was an amazing experience. We took a cable car up the mountain from Suisi, then another one further up into the meadow. Sitting there looking over the meadows and the alpine huts, hearing the tinkling cow bells, and breathing in the fresh mountain air was simply indescribable. There are not enough adjectives in the English language. Even photos cannot capture the beauty of this spot. You will just have to come here. Soon. Den and I agree that this is a day that will be etched in our memories forever.
Earlier on this trip we decided our philosophy was to "Fill up the life we have." We have expanded on that. Now our goal is simply to "get a bigger cup" :)
