Switzerland

I just had to post this photo which I took from a vista point in Switzerland. You can see that it was August of 2012. We had driven a long way to see the Swiss Alps.   The highway runs north to south through a pretty valley. I had done the research and it had grand views on all sides of the mountains.
     Research aside, when we got there it was raining heavily. We stopped a few times - just to rest from driving in the torrent. Went to a small grocery to buy Swiss chocolate. We stopped for lunch. It rained hard until we got to Italy. The above photo is essentially what we saw on that trip to Switzerland.
    We had a flight scheduled from Verona to Paris that goes right over Mount Blanc. I had researched that one too. We saw nothing but clouds. So, this means that there has to be a next time. Something more to look forward to.
