    @realplayer Oh, no worries.

    My palate has never been accused of being sophisticated.

    I'm glad your career brought you to Lugano, and that you enjoyed the cheese!

      Staying 4 nights in Zurich. Newer Hyatt - modern to the point of austerity. Suits me fine. Includes breakfast. Everything we need and nothing we don’t.

      Breakfast included. They invented Meusli here and I hope I find it on the chow line.

      So far things in Switzerland impress me. Similar to Germany - clean, well engineered,
      and efficient. Maybe even more so.
      Everything works!

        TIL that Zürich is the most expensive city in the world - and I believe it! The price of everything is - YIKES!

            Our first authentic Swiss meal. “Raclette” which is both the name of the cheese and how they prepare it (poured over bread and/or potatoes, sausage and/or bacon on the side) There is nothing here not to like. 👍

              If you notice women in fishnet stockings in the doorways you are in the redlight district. That was when we realized our hotel was in that district in Geneva.

                I love swiss cheese (I mean, I pretty much love any cheese...) so I would love the chance to have different swiss cheeses in Switzerland!

                    Took a cable car to the top of a mountain overlooking Lake Zurich.

                    Spectacular!

                      I’ve heard the road to hell changes planes in Atlanta. We’re changing planes in Atlanta.

                      Coincidence?

                      That was true in the 90's and early 2000's. Not so much now. It's well laid out and easy to get around from concourse to concourse. O'Hare is my most hated now, with Charlotte and Miami coming in close seconds.
