My attempt to articulate

I know I said I’d try to write more about Switzerland, but the truth is, like I briefly wrote yesterday, it is incredibly difficult to articulate colors, sounds and sights like you find here. I can write about taking the Rigi Bahn train up to the top of the mountain here in Vitznau and tell [...]

A thousand words…
