- Our last day in Switzerland…This morning, being our last in Chur, we had a quick brekkie and went for a wander around the old town. Lovely place with wonderful old buildings, but boy it was a little chilly. We walked up to Posted by Floss33 in Christmas Markets and NYC 2024 | Dec 27, 2024
- Smack, Crack and Sack(ed)…You are probably wondering what on earth we are talking about, so please let me explain… Today was Bernina Express day - which meant an early start. An uneventful night, oh you wish…. We hit the sack at a reasonable Posted by Floss33 in Christmas Markets and NYC 2024 | Dec 26, 2024

- All the best laid plans…Yes, I know you have heard that before, but travel is one of those things that does get impacted by events which change what you end up doing. Last night we had high hopes that today we would be able to Posted by Floss33 in Christmas Markets and NYC 2024 | Dec 24, 2024

- Laa Laa was on form todayOur hotel in Montreux wasn’t the best, but wasn’t the worst either - it was functional. CJ’s and MOTH’s room seemed to have a more up to date bathroom than Laa Laa and Po’s, but they didn’t have to Posted by Floss33 in Christmas Markets and NYC 2024 | Dec 22, 2024
- Golden Pass Express Take 2…Why take 2 - well for those who have been following along, we went on the Golden Pass train last time we were in Montreux - last week…. But as usual I’m ahead of myself, so back to this morning. Posted by Floss33 in Christmas Markets and NYC 2024 | Dec 21, 2024

- Swissgate 19122024 Luzern or Lucerne or Loosern…The hotel (Ambassador) was OK but SO hot, which made sleeping slightly tricky, but we managed.
