I have reevaluated my opinion of Bormio. After spending some time walking around the downtown in the early evenings, I can appreciate the people and the history of the place. It's a nice, quiet, peaceful place. Very will kept, clean. This is the summer Bormio. I expect the winter Bormio is a different story. Skiing is king in these parts (as well as in the Dolomites).
Both Bormio and Arabba (and these regions) have heavy German influences. There's less Italian spoken, and more German.
And the strudel's much better than what we'd found earlier. The strudel in Pratto allo Stelvio was, by a wide margin, the best so far. But the search is never ending. I'll be trying strudel's from here to Venice in the next two weeks.
