Thanks for the memories...
One of our favorite locations to visit was Bernese Oberland. We stayed at the small in in Stechelberg and hiked the surrounding mountains. One of our favorite walks was from Mannlichen to Kleine Scheidegg to Wengen. An we loved skiing from Kleine Scheidegg to Wengen or Grindelwald. And we loved the Greek Islands. However, we have not been to Poland, but that's high on our list as Linda's ancestors came from Krakow.

I knew if you were in Greece you had to see some cats. You didn't let me down. Between the monastery/the phone booth and squid mkt, you did a great job!
Stay well and Keep Traveling! Cheers, Nancy
