Switzerland

In August I visited Zurich and Geneva and got a nice taste of life in Switzerland - my first time in this country.  The food was great and the people were wonderful.  The weather was really fantastic and it was great to see real mountains again!

Munich

We only spent a couple days wandering around Munich on a visit in August and enjoyed the many cafes, the kind people, and the wonderful food and bier!
