Yeppers, I remember that exact route! I didn't realize what had happened at first because you're way up there and then next thing you know you're going, wait a minute, I remember seeing this up there. Brilliant engineering. The funiculars and gondolas are cool, too.
Yup. I wish I could go back to Swissland. What was interesting was that the Germans and the Swiss were not too conversent. Their dialects were confusing to both. I actually started to rewind of my twelve years of French and di some interpretive work. And I'm just a "dopey" American. BTW, I HATE the French. I learned to hate the French when Charles DeGaulle told Dean Rusk (sec for LBJ) to get all Americans out of France. Rusk told Chuckie DeGaulle to dig up 55,000 American soldiers' graves that died on French soil.
I could talk European politics for weeks.
Between my wife and I, we have worked in over 30 European countries. And we share our war/love/hate/ stories.
"Swissland" was the BEST.
