Banjuaraa: very nice. reminds me of the time we had a week`s holiday - landed in zurich, rented a car and drove around upto Lucerne. wasnt much of a holiday - rained 3 days, and the first weekend we found that their grocery stores were closed for three days on some extended holiday. and all i could get at the small inn we were staying was lousy hamburgers at the outrageous price of 15 dollars.

OK, enough griping. the countryside was nice, nice picnics on the mountainside - by law, farmers are required to allow picnickers to use their farmland. Lucerne was very nice, with boating against beautiful backdrop of the mountains.

(PS: I see one of our Indian leeches mister harimau showing up too - dont worry about him. These guys have a huge inferiority complex they cant seem to get rid off.)

Your madrassah education is showing.

Dear Editors,

Thank you for publishing the travelogue, however, the 22 pictures I have uploaded with this article are missing. If they are put in the Photo Gallery, it would make a lot of sense to the description of Zurich and it`s beautiful Cathedrals.

Regards.
