Well, let's see...Glacier Express on Sunday was a little boring after being up on the Gornergrat. But beautiful nonetheless. Hotel Bellaval in St Moritz was fine, right by the train station--but we couldn't figure out how to get there at first so we took a very unnecessarily long route to get to the hotel, then saw a tunnel …
