The pictures were too drab to post. <BR/>Also...did you actually read my post? "Those deals" were day passes. There's currently a "Special Offer Day Pass" through December 17th...I paid 59 instead of 90, and the round-trip Basel/Chur would normally have cost 98.

Take the little train up there -- and definitely try to go in the summer. I made a day trip to Arosa and am looking forward to going back someday with my SO. I love the day-tripping possibilities in Switzerland! I get a one-month GA in the summer, and travel around.

I know that just about every time I watch a ski race on TV from St. Moritz that it's usually sunny with blue skies.The Big Finnhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09399330438126032649noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7341696.post-1165174107848480702006-12-03T14:28:00.000-05:002006-12-03T14:28:00.000-05:00I hear that the people of many such moutainy place...I hear that the people of many such moutainy places like that (Graubünden, Wallis) suffer from seasonal depression, something like the nordic coutries have, because of the lack of sun during the winter months. However, for a tourist, these places are always worth a stop.CanadianSwisshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07643821249467079199noreply@blogger.com
