What to Expect

Becky has told me that the Swiss trains are efficient, easy to board, on time, and we should have no problem with our luggage getting on and off trains.

She also tells me Italian trains are an adventure.  A luggage-toting, train-chasing, platform-morphing chaotic nightmare.  I'm ready.

It all reminded me of this little ditty:

Heaven:
It's where the police are British
The cooks are Italian
The lovers are French
The mechanics are German
And it's all organized by the Swiss.

Hell is where the cooks are British
The mechanics are French
The lovers Swiss
The police are German
And it's all organized by the Italians
