In 42 hours i'll be leaving the house on this year's euro trip. As usual i'll post as many photos as I can. Passes driven this year? Furka, Grimsel, Grossglockner, Stelvio, Brenner and many more.
2019 Euro Alpine Trip
Day 1 - Early Start and the Strip Club
With the train booked for 6.50am, it meant leaving the house at 4am! Every year i say this is too early, and that next year the train will be a more civilised time! But then i always book the early train. I need to learn!
The hotel for the night is in Bern, Switzerland, so after a quick route via Luxembourg for cheap (€1.09.9 / litre) diesel it was a case of hugging the east of France down to Switzerland.
Having a break / refreshment.
Finding the hotel was no problem and upon pulling up saw what looked like a bar and thought, "excellent, food and beer on site" but........
Whilst the hotel was pretty nondescript.....
There was a strip club attached to the end of the hotel!
And this being Switzerland, i doubt i could afford the entrance fee, let alone a private dance
Deciding to forgo the strip club, beer and food was acquired elsewhere.
It had been a long day, so an early night, to recover for the proper roads was much needed.
Total driving time (including stops/fuel ups/Eurotunnel/etc) - 13 hours / 688 miles
