Last Day in Europe On Sunday, August 29, we woke up in Winkel, Switzerland. [09:47] A pleasant surprise – We paid 90CHF for hotel Landgasthof Breiti, but I was expecting something around 130 CHF. [10:14] It is Sunday, but Airport Gas Station is opened and there are no lines. Here […]
Wake up in Airolo On Saturday, August 28 we woke up in Airolo. I had all mine and Lira’s warm clothes on me to stop the cold. I was able to delay the actual cold till September 10. Breakfast was included, so we eat along with all the bikers, who […]
Next day, Friday, August 27 2010 we woke up in Swiss-Italian Airolo. During breakfast we met a Swiss couple, who traveled on the rail, because it was “free” for them. They pay over 3000 CHF per year each to use the rial system for everyday commute. So they decided to […]
Next day – Thursday, August 26, 2010 – it was time to leave Bellagio and Italy and return to Switzerland. First, we had to drive using the same narrow and picturesque road along lake Come and enter Switzerland through Chiasso. Just a second ago we were driving on a busy […]
On Wednesday, August 25 we woke up in Bellagio in Albergo Giardinetto. We followed an interesting breakfast ritual here.

Next morning, Tuesday, August 24, 2010 we went to swim in Mediterranean Sea before breakfast. I didn’t swim. Only Lira swam, and I was in charge or taking pictures from the pier. Out next point of interest could have been Milan, but as usual we decided to skip cities and […]
On Monday, August 23, we woke up in Genova to proceed to the southernmost point of our trip – Italian Riviera. We took an advice of our host Stephan (75% sure the name is correct) to avoid more popular and more remote Cinque Terre. We dropped our bags and started […]
And just when you think there is nothing can beat the excitement of the highest mountains in Europe, you proceed to the road ahead. Next day, Sunday, August 22, we decided to bypass Turin and go directly to Genova. We typed in an address of Red House Hostel (Via B.Buozzi, 26/9) in […]
Finally, on Saturday, August 21, 2010 it was time to take our first hike into the mountains. Back in Boston I picked a path going up towards Monte Bianco (Italian) from Italian side. It was a day trip starting from 1,500m parking lot and going as high as 2,590m at […]
On the morning of August 20, Friday we woke up in Geneva. You have to show your hotel receipts at the kitchen counter to get your breakfast. Lots of people of all ages. Some tourists, but some looked like ready to take off for work. As usual, the roads were […]
Morning and early afternoon on Wednesday, August 18 we spent in Fribourg (Freiburg in German). This town is a perfect model for Disney World for adults. It simply has everything. It is the capital of a canton (like a state in US). It has upper town and a lower town. […]
