Verona

VerY Romantic.  Lovers everywhere - a la Romeo & Guilietta.
Gnocchi.
Fairly good gelato also.
Very cool does not begin to describe it.

The churches are all pristine in thier own aged inperfect way.  but it was nice to actually sight some 'maintenance'.    Sant'Anastasia

This kid (it's not the same kid) is all monumented out.  Yup, it can happen.  But life's about choices, and he's plenty old enough to drink coffee


Rooftops.  its funny how things look depending on where you stand, 


  

These cats know gelato

i FOUND milano.  not sure if it found me......

lots of great things, and an abundance of average things....thus, one can conclude, that some local knowhow is needed to for this one.   We still got along OK.

Just a little hill on Lake COMO.....as snapped on the zurich to milan trainride.  incredible.



Lung cancer....seems to be a fairly well known about condition in AUS.  Not so in europa.  maybe (kings) castles and (impressive) churches cure cancer?  I doubt it...but. it seems "faith is a gift they have received, and i am yet to" (T.H).  "Damn Churchies" (A.Y.)



Snail attack.  Stoked kid.  Historic buildings.  I could not resist.

CH - Confederation Helvetica (part 6)

Pissing on someone's floor is like engraving something in the fresh cement outside their house....it takes a while to get forgotten.  2nd hand info.  Or 3rd maybe.

DAVOS - is a city in the CH alps...not a resort, not a town, not a village...a CITY.  Got it. And so....apparently cities in the alps have palm trees and spas @ 2300m elevation.  "sure, its OK, you can make relax and sauna spa after ski"......



In this city (and on the drive home), I also learnt that DJing is no longer about matching beats, scratching and digging through crates.....it is now cheat programs, effect buttons and music theft.  ClastParty.

CH - Confederation Helvetica (part 1)

"Das ist kunst" is swiss-german for "THIS IS ART" - u hurd it here early.

Spani treated me to some Zurich sites.  Mellow place.  Mellow people.  Says plenty about being neutral and staying wealthy.

I mayB addicted to Swatch.  Swatch stores.  Swatch presents.    And,  Photos (of limited quality). 

A photo of a Swiss Bank seemed necessary.  very jason bourne of me I know, but if it comes naturally...


I do not compute how those ducks and swans can tolerate being in that cold lake (L Zurich). I'd be shitting all over people and things as well - unphased
Lovely City.  
Thanks Renato
Thanks Rudolph (Renato's DAD).
   

2zero1zero continues on its fine way

More moments worth citing....
personally, i dont think economy plus deserves its own sign...it stinks worse than munich cupboards.  and they stink.


we graced the Transworld POLL awards (before the stripclub) with some 'last one's here' style that often defines Buller kids.  I am not sure the loco mexico's are aware of the Corona Can Invention either....
further, a keen eye will notice a broken nose in that shot.


More STanton memoirs....and more proof that Ed does ski.  Not looking entirely certain about the white shit falling from the clouds    (?) though is he.

euro dictations

ISPO.  SIA.  abbreviations a plenty over this way, here are some moments i enjoyed. 

Stanton is a major place.  epic terrain.  better apre! MOOSEVRIT loves a table dance. 


Schloss Neuwanstein....the disney castle was based on this.  We asked for the english guide, not sure if we got it.  more culture the better i say.
