Is it Possible to "Overdo" the Italian Lakes?

My wife and I will visit Lakes Garda, Como and Maggiore in July:<BR><BR>Milan (1 day, stay w/ cousin in Monza)<BR>rent car<BR>Verona (2 days, Armando Hotel)<BR>Sirmione (via Bergamo, 2 days, Hotel Sirmione)<BR>Bellagio (3 days, Belvedere)<BR>Stresa (2 days, La Palma).<BR><BR>We've previously been to Venice, Rome, Tuscany and Amalfi Coast.<BR><BR>Too much Lake? I'd love any comments, suggestions.

Ten days at different lakes isn't overdoing it. How can you overdo beauty anyway? I always spend more times at the ocean or a lake myself. Water draws me to it, I must have Aquarius rising.

One year we did 12 days or more in the Italian Lakes, besides Como and Maggiore and Garda, also Orta and even Iseo. Never tired of it. In fact, it was one of our favorite trips. Beautiful and very relaxing. You've got Milan and Verona as well as lakes. You'll be fine, in fact may wonder why you didn't plan for more.

Sounds good to me---the Lakes are my favorite venue in Italy. Drive over to Orta from Stresa--via Gignese. Have fun

Thanks for the replies, I agree with you!<BR><BR>It's just when I read something like "three days on Como was a little much" I started wondering what the heck they could be thinking.
