Oh, it’s all getting very complicated. We’re stuck on the wrong side of the Swiss border at the moment. Everyone is being very nice, but when euros don’t work here, you arrive without a hotel and no ticket back out things get a bit sticky. We spent hours walking miles last night trying to find somewhere to stay. Probably the biggest mistake was passing through the border controls. Perhaps if we’d stayed on the French side of the fence things would have been easier.
Still, it’s an adventure and after a meet and greet with a friendly man behind the CFF (Swiss railways) information desk it looks as thought we may have found a route out across the mountains to Milano Centrale and on south from there to Rome.
Honestly, I’m starting to feel like the Von Trap Family children making a swift escape.
