Hey you guys... there is actually no such thing as "Swiss Cheese" in Switzerland. All the cheese have proper names.

P_M

If you're from the US and want to get there fast, use American Express.

....hey, Faina, that was ME not Patrick that resurrected that important info about visas. Or did I overlook another thread posted by Patrick?

Intrepid, please take a look at the "visa required," thread.

FainaAgain

Oh, P_M, so it was YOU? Where do you live

Rufus: now I need to "Discover" something? What will I be looking for?

Suze, I know, it's "All-Pine". Does it taste and smell the way it sound? Or is it Al-Pine like Al-Qaeda?

P_M

Austin, TX. And you, Faina?

FainaAgain

OK, Austin TX is on my "to go" list, and not with good intentions YOU scared me with that visa post, huh?

I live in San Francisco.

P_M

Faina, you have a delightful sense of humor.

I hope you were kidding....

FainaAgain

Oh, sure I am kidding about going to Texas! I would never mess with Texas

I am not kidding about living in San Francisco though. Come to visit! Just don't yodel here, not even in your sleep!

Faina should be a comedy writer

FainaAgain

A comedy writer? No way! I LIVE a comedy! Much more convenient this way

You can learn to yodel - and you should try.

There'll probably be lessons on the flight over, if you fly with a reputable airline.

Have a grrrreat Swiss time!

P_M

Faina, I would love to visit SF again. It's such a great city, even if I'm not allowed to yodel. And I really hope you will visit Austin someday.

Another vote for you to visit Austin. Not only do we have those delicacies known as cow pies, but we also have armadillo droppings. yum..yum.. Hope to see you soon!

FainaAgain

Austin will have to wait. Only 2 days till Switzerland. Going through pre-travel anxiety now. Any last-moment hints?

JJ5

No hints, as you'll do fine. Switzerland is wonderful to visit and it will be easy for you to communicate.

Have a lovely time and tell us all about it upon your return.

In Germany I got chocolate rats in Hamlin and also rat pretzels. Both were delicious. In Switzerland you can get lots of goodies to bring home. Not just the eating kind.

FainaAgain

"In Switzerland you can get lots of goodies. Not just the eating kind." - and I thought it's only in Paris you have to look down what you're stepping into. ((&amp)

Intrepid1

Are you trying to tell us those cowpies you stepped in weren't made out of chocolate????

suze

Have a great trip!! Switzerland is the easiest foreign country I have ever traveled in... bon voyage...

Kal

I heard Faina yodel last Sat night in SF.

Great set of lungs!!!! =D>=D>=D>

Hi Kal, so our dear Faina got that virus in Switzerland and is still yoldeling? How did Kuleto's respond, LOL...did you all get kicked out or did everyone join in?

Oh Faina, what are we going to do about Kal??
