With the exception of England and Ireland, isn't most of Europe smelly ? Sure seemed that way at times when I was living in Germany. I exempt the English and the Irish because those countries get rain daily so they get washed no matter what....

Different cultures, eh? I suppose we Americans "smell", w/ our scented deodarants and colognes, etc.

OK, that sounds marginally better than the day trip we have planned to the local vineyards on Saturday.

The train trip through the Alps is stunning (did it years and years ago). Get a window seat if you have to whoopass do do it.

And here is a toy (ala /.) that you might enjoy before you go. It's a map of Switzerland similar to goggle maps.

Just further away. Any trip to the vineyards is a great trip.
