    Bernina Express

    May 30, 2018 in Switzerland ⋅ ⛅ 26 °C

We got off the train and there were six older people asking if they had heard correct that we were staying at Hotel Post, as they were, and did we know how to get there.

We crossed the crosswalk and dragged our luggage (some of us were limping) for another block, and now it's raining. Oh maybe it's in the COMPLETE OPPOSITE DIRECTION. I was so embarrassed I could have killed him.
