Props on location

Why not bringing Props back on location?!
When packing last week, I picked up couple of FYEO Props just in case ;)

After Grindelwald/Shilthorn or Chantilly(https://www.ajb007.co.uk/post/880655/#p880655), we are currently in Cortina!

    Let's begin by a view from the "Tofane"! (note that the top "Tofana" 3244m is closed in Winter, the max is 2470m).

    I haven't seen those mushroom pasta on the menu, if my be worth asking for them.
    It's around 15 years ago, my wife is still speaking about them.

    Best Pizza we had at Ghedina ;)

    Would love to see someone re-enact Scaramanga's and Bond's duel in Golden Gun.

    If I remember correctly, Kan took a Golden Gun to Scaramanga Island some years ago.

    Superb. Hope he has some pics of that. I wanted to take the whole PPK/S and box to the National Gallery, but I'd have been nicked within 20 seconds of opening it :))

    He did, and took the right shirt, and perhaps one of these:

    Some more pictures...

    Yesterday, the weather was cloudy and snowy, so we went to see the Miramonti and the ski jump Hill -almost in front of the hotel- (both are 2km far from Cortina center)

    Sorry for the weather and for the light... :# The hotel looks more out of an Agatha Christie's book or from Kubrick's Shining than from a Bond movie... :D

    I smiled when I saw the straight road section that goes to the hotel...! I remembered the report on the arrival of the Lotus and snow problem.
