Back from Europe

Just came back from Europe - Paris, Switzerland and Germany. Paris was Paris - wine, women et al. Switzerland was breathtaking - every time I opened my eyes, it was a postcard shot. Germany was relaxing - a good way to end the trip.

10 days, 3 countries, whirlwind trip - trip of a lifetime.

Here are some peeves, though:

1. While Switzerland has some of the most beautiful lakes in the world - Lake Zurich, Lake Luzern etc. why do Swiss drink bottled water for 5 EUR. BTW beer costs 3 EUR and wine costs 4 EUR. highly recommend either to water.

2. Are the Swiss hell bent on destroying what nature has given them by 1. smoking incessantly 2. smoking in all public places 3. making smoking a national pastime - 9 out of 10 people I saw had a light between their fingers!

3. Mona Lisa is overrated! Seriously!
