Room at the Inn


We drove around this little town (it was dark at the time - after 10 pm).  Jim stopped and went in to see if this hotel had a room.  Turned out they did.

He came back to the car and said we had a place to stay and I would be able to see what a "shared bathroom" was like.

We often see this when we looking for a hotel in Europe:


and I always say "who does that?"

Now I know.

Us.  


The "shared bathroom".  It actually wasn't so bad.  That's the toilet on the left and the shower on the right.   Yes, it was quite a way down the hall from our room, but at least the doors locked!

Plus, the restaurant had excellent pizza and chianti :)


And this little town of Biasca, Switzerland . . .


was unbelievably picturesque.


We were so glad we got stopped here!


Many of the houses had vineyards in the backyard.


And they all used granite as support for the vines.


It almost seemed like time stood still here.


An unexpected surprise  . . .


in the Swiss Alps.
