Hi from Lake Como, Italy

Hi everyone!
This is the first time weve been able to get to an internet cafe.
We are in Lake Como, Italy. We left Interlaken and headed up toward the northeast corner of Switzerland to Appenzell area. This was probably the hardest spot to find a hotel as we were out in the middle of nowhere in dairy cow country and it was after 6 p.m. and we finally found a Bed and Breakfast up a hillside. karen and stan were on the first floor with a bathroom in their room. no walls for the bathroom, just a curtain around the toilet. We were on the 3rd floor and had to use the hall bathroom. but as no one was there besides us it wasnt so bad. Quiet, you cant believe how quiet. I love the cows all night with their bells clunking all night.
The next day we took off for Chur on the way to Lugano and we stopped to see a church that was huge and was reported to be the biggest in Switzerland. I cant spell the name but it was unbelievably gorgous. Beautiful paintings on the ceilings and ornate carvings and paintings everywhere. Then we stopped in Liechtenstein and stopped and saw the castle of the Royal Prince.
Then after that went to Chur and found a hotel. tired very tired. We have covered a lot of Switzerland in the car. It is one of the cleanest countries I have ever seen. no garbage anywhere, the roads are in great condition, and there is no pollution.
Yesterday we headed for Lugano. and drove down one of the longest canyons we have ever seen. it had to be at least 30 miles of all downhill. then we found a great bed and breakfast 20 minutes out of town and way above the city overlooking Lake Lagono. No phone, no TV, no credit cards but they had a restaurant that was obviously popular with the locals and for good reason, very good food. The view was spectacular.
We turned the car in this morning and caught the train to Lake Como. The trains are easy to navigate once you figure out the system. Our hotel overlooks the south tip looking north on the lake and tomorrow we are catching a water taxi that will take us around the lake and we can get off and check out small villages and gardens. We re thinking that we will catch the train on Saturday for Milan and go check it out, we didnt get reservations in time to see the Last Supper but Milan looks cool and its only an hour away.
We miss you all and hope you are all well. Take carek, love to you from all of us.
