Moneglia, Italy
Here is the view from the cottage I stayed in while in Moneglia, Italy. I was there for 3 nights. We stayed with friends of Gabi's family, George and Margaret Kaufmann. George was Mayor of Zurich for 10 years. We had many discussions about Napoleon and the poets and writers that lived in the region. He spoke some English and I did my best with German.
Below is the one lane tunnel we had to drive through to get to Moneglia. The board says when the light will turn green for you to enter. The tunnel is long so the light turns green 3 times an hour for 5 minutes, every 20 minutes. This was first used as a rail tunnel and runs along the shoreline. One evening while waiting for the light to turn green we ran down into the Mediterranean Sea.

Since I hung out for a week with someone that spoke German. It was Swiss German, not that junk they taught you at Western!
And he speaks it without an accent!! :-)
