Ciao Merano. November 2014!

Kevin, Milo and I took a relaxing spa and shopping trip to Merano, Italy during his November break! Merano is a beautiful city in the South Tryol region of Northern Italy that has a great Austrian-German influence like most cities in Northern Italy!

Beautiful Merano!

 We stayed at Hotel Aurora and it was very nice! Since we had Milo we had to upgrade to the suite because the regular rooms had carpet and they preferred him on the hardwood floors!

He's a good Boyyy! Our room was very nice! It had a jacuzzi tub in the bedroom!



 Since we got the suite our balcony was huge and full of plants!

Apertivo before dinner on the patio of the Hotel!

 Sunset in this beautiful place! Our hotel is the white square building on the right.

 Our first meal was at the Forst restaurant in Merano. Forst is a brewery founded and produced in the South Tryol region by 2 guys from Merano in 1857! The restaurant serves local German cuisine and it was all delicious and perfect along side our beer!

Pork, Kielbasa. Sauerkraut, Dumplings, Horseradish,  and Mustard!

Breakfast at Hotel Aurora! 

 We went on a little hike the next morning along the river to a waterfall a couple Kilometers from our hotel!

 Me and My boy!

 Merano is so beautiful! I fell in love in our short visit!


The path was very nice and clean! The city was very clean all together! 





Here's the waterfall lol not very extravagant! But we enjoyed the hike!






 For lunch Kevin found an amazing restaurant, Lalessandra! Which is a traditional southern Italian family owned restaurant! lots and lots of seafood!

 Signore Nilo the owner who was very friendly and made us feel at home! First suggested the white wine to go with the seafood of course, but I'm a 100% red girl unless its Prosecco! You can drink red wine with fish ;)

We love seafood! 

 We went to the Spa after lunch for the rest of the day! Our Hotel was just across the river from the spa and gave us these totes to take with robes and towels!
Check out the website! www.termemerano.it Its Amazing! Just 13 Euros a person for 3 hours! We also didn't get to enjoy the saunas because it was a nude sauna, like most of the rest of Europe!

Walking around shopping I saw these macaroon stools! so cute!

For dinner we ended up staying at a place we originally went for apertivo, Bistro 7! The food was very good!


Look at that dessert!

 Rainy morning run with Milo before we left on the colorful trails while Kevin was still sleeping!
