Hotel Engel Vaduz

We were planning to go to Liechtenstein but thought we may as well as it was sort of on our way. It's the worlds 6 smallest country so it would have been rude not to go..haha.<br><br>We didn't drive to the main town but to another.. where really there wasn't anything. I did get a photo with the tourist sign though. Had to somehow prove I'd been there!<br>

... can watch all the processes they go through to make the cheese, which was pretty interesting! We watched the cheese-makers go through all the processes for quite a while and had a drink at in the restaurant before going back to Gossau for an authentic cheese Fondue!<br><br>We got up early the next morning and said goodbye to Heinz and Elsa, and caught our 1st train to get to Prague. It took us about 10.5 hours to get there.. LOOOOOONG time sitting on trains!!

... Feldkirch I got lost. Actually I was just trying to get to McDonald's because the group wanted a bathroom break and the public toilets here were not to our standards. Anyway, I drove past the McDonald's twice - once my fault and once the navigator's - and drove down a pedestrian only section of road before we gave up and continued on our journey out of town and deeper into Austria.

... can't take photos in the library and I can describe in words the beauty of the library sufficiently. Let's just say if you have the chance, go take a look.<br><br>It was time for food so we found a little cafe and had a bite to eat before tracking down my parents again. They were hungry because they had been waiting for us before they ate (oops!) so we returned to the same cafe and they had a quick meal before we returned to the car. Next stop: Austria!

Work has been quite slow lately so since I had nothing better to do today, I took a train to Sargans, Switzerland, and then waited for a bus to Vaduz, Liechtenstein. I missed the bus that left 4 minutes after I arrived. By missed, I mean I couldn't find it until I saw it driving past me. And there are only two or three bus stands in Sargans at the train station, so it was completely due to a lack of intelligence on my part.<br><br>Once I ...

... with woman in his spare ten minutes, take her to the bathroom? Fortunately most of the scenery and the characters were a little more pleasing esthetically. Tops of the list of places would probably be Dubrovnik in Croatia, Mostar in Hercegovina, and Ljubljana in Slovenia, vivid combinations of history, culture, and architecture without so many distractions that all that gets obscured. Tourist high season in summertime ...

Hi everybody, As mentioned in the Easter entry, another "Flat Stanley", this one named Flat Matt, has come into our lives. Matt is lucky in that we are doing a lot of traveling right now, so he's getting to see a lot. After going with us to England for Easter he went with Chris and another friend, David, to the Basel watch show in Switzerland. On the way ...

... to get all that sorted, and after the mighty rain storm fell, i took a bike ride around the country, literally, along the side of the rhine. unfortunately things took a turn for the bad in the evening. possibly dehydrated from the long hike and maybe my water bottle is contaminated with something funky, i got sick. not good sick either. slightly recovered in the morning and headed off to buchs for the journey to salzburg...

... Residence. We were welcomed at the hotel by the reception staff and the manager as "Mr and Mrs Honeymoon" which was great. The staff helped us with our bags up to our suite, the Prince Maximillian suite! The room was awesome with a spa, balcony and a free bottle of French champagne. We settled in and then took some pictures of the views from our hotel room balcony and windows. Great views of the city and the surrounding mountains. We got ...

... go all out for desserts, and it shows&#8230;but they also walk a lot, so they can eat like this. When we returned from dinner, it was quite late and we have an early start on Monday... we are off for Lucerne. (Before I forget, the music during dinner was absolutely wonderful. Two young fellows were playing local Swiss mountain music on accordions and my feet just couldn&#8217;t stay still. Maggie was the only other one of Our Group who went with us.) We had a great time.<br><br>
