This is where we stopped to buy some postcards for my scrapbook....
...Brrrrr.......This is Lake Silva Plana we ate beside in St. Moritz.....
Beautiful waterfall on the way there..........
Tiny, narrow streets that you have watch the edges of buildings when driving!
Groovy cows of Switzerland. Accustomed to the paparazzi,......Today's advetures took us across Italy's northern border to St. Moritz, Switzerland and boy, was it breathtaking! Every view was a postcard picture. Our car rental let us use the Blaupunkt navigation system which is German and I have to say, it's better than Garmin! They give you better verbal commands ahead of the turns and the mapping is more accurate. The only problem was the charge cord was screwy and we had to use a twist-tie and a rubberband to maintain contact and keep the darn thing charging! We found this out after it announced "LOW BATTERY" and I thought, "not a good time there, Blaupunkt buddy! We will never find our way back!"But we did and all was well. St. Moritz actually had snow on the ground and was snowing when we arrived! The waitresses were complaining that they are usually swimming in June! We sat next to an elderly couple from Germany and he was trying so hard to talk to us. We used hand gestures and smiled alot. We think he was complaining about the low cloud cover blocking the views of the mountains. They seemed very nice. The roads are very curvy and we must have gone through 25 tunnels and several narrow streets in tiny towns along the way. So pretty! The traffic was a breeze compared to what we've been through and Dennis loved it to pieces!
Right now it's about 7:00pm and we are getting ready to go find some dinner! Ciao!
