Switzerland
There is nothing prettier than the Swiss countryside and small towns. Well, the large towns are nice also.

Nova Scotia
There is a lot to do in Nova Scotia. Also see my previous blog entry on Peggy's Cove and following blog entry on Baddeck and the Alexander Graham Bell Museum. I remember Grand Pre with its Acadian site and Evangeline statue and the Port-Royal Historic Site with the Habitation from a previous visit. Nova Scotia used to issue visitors a certificate of membership in the Order of the Good Time if they stayed a certain number of days, but I don't know if they still do that.

Somber
History shows mans inhumanity to man. The history of this location is sad beyond belief.

Thanks for the memories...
My first time up Mt. Pilatus was in 1964 and again in 1968. I guess it is time to go again! I did it in reverse order. I was surprised to learn that the peak is only 6982 ft in elevation. I've been living at 8400 ft for the last 17 years under Pikes Peak which is 14,115, but nothing as spectacular as Mt. Pilatus or the Bernese Alps!

Mount Pilatus / Pike's Peak
Thank you for your comment! We really enjoyed our day-long round trip to Mount Pilatus. The scenery all along the way was spectacular. We plan to be in Colorado in July and are planning to ride the Pike's Peak Cog Railway. We did not have any difficulty at the top of Mount Pilatus. Do you have any cautions for being at over twice the altitude at Pike's Peak?

Wawel Royal Castle

Krakow
Thank you for your comment! Krakow is beautiful and it is original, not destroyed during World War II. I'll be continuing to describe our discoveries at other Polish Cities. Gdansk was a great surprise.

This looks like a lovely city and we hope to visit soon. We'd better go before something happens ....

Łazienki Palace

Warsaw
What was particularly impressive about Warsaw is that Poland worked so hard to rebuilt it after World War II. Nearly 90 per cent of the city was destroyed. It took them decades, but they put it all back together. That took determination.

Poland
Poland holds a lot of history and I wish we had gone sooner. We hope to get there soon.... even with all the issues going on.

Poland
A friend of ours is going to Poland this week. She will be visiting Warsaw and Lublin (which we did not visit) principally to do research for a book she is writing. We've encouraged her to also visit Krakow, probably the most beautiful city in Poland.
