And what a strange place Switzerland is.

Very clean, mostly. And tidy.

But very, very expensive.

We're going to Gruyere later in the week, and maybe do some wine trails, but I'm not finding it "fun".

And where in Tuscany are you?

We stayed near Buonconvento - halfway between Montalcino and Montepulciano. Loved Siena.

If you're near Siena, the Palio happens around now. You should try and see it.
