I must return to Switzerland

            Here is my sad story. On an extended road trip through Italy, Austria, Germany Liechtenstein and Switzerland everything was great. The weather was good for the most part and the driving was challenging but fun. I had plans to drive of the length of Switzerland. I also made sure our flight from Verona to Paris went over the Matterhorn. Then, as we entered Switzerland the clouds rolled in and the rains came. It was hard driving although the roads were not crowded. The level of the clouds was maybe a hundred fifty feet above the road. We were in a steep valley and if there were mountains around us there was no way to tell. We saw little of the country. As we got back into Italy things cleared for awhile and we enjoyed our visit to Lake Como. Then, in Verona the clouds came back and guess how well we could see the Matterhorn while flying over it. Not sure that there is anything but clouds in Switzerland.  I have seen photos of a beautiful country, but I will have to go back to see it on a sunny day! Photo is the best I have of Switzerland.
