Gotta love those days where nothing really goes to plan! Good job staying positive through all of that!
:) haha yep - still gotta make the best of it. Also, your video on the big ole Minneapolis spoon was good! Good parking tips - we spent wayyyy too much when we saw it
Very nice share my friend. Have a great day and stay safe my friend.
Thank you so much! :) you too!
I had the same exact problem and wound up biting the bullet and renting a car. I know a lot of travel guides swear by using the train but driving was way better in terms of saving time and being able to see more places
You guys are warrior's. Haven't forgotten you. 🤙🏽🤙🏽
Thanks dude :)
You should go back to Lugano, Locarno, Bellinzona, Verzasca for a few days. People just blaze right through there on the train, and really miss out.
Just found your channel! Best wishes
Thank you and welcome!
Awesome! It seems that you also have a similar itinerary to us; so we can definitely learn from your experience😊
Awesome :) super happy to hear that it's helpful
Gotta love those super long and FUN travel days! I would love those train rides though at leas the views weren’t too bad 😂😍
ha yeah - the train gods were against us on this one for sure. The views were absolutely amazing :)
@@LisaAndJosh poppi?
Long journey, but Switzerland is amazing!
Yep! :) bad luck with the trains, but good luck when we got there
Good luck on your travels... I live in St Paul MN, and I'm going to Portugal, Spain and Italy leaving on 8/27...... So concern as they are re losing again... Please keep us posted on requirements for CoVID Moving around countries and back to the US
Definitely will - I really hope you can go on your trip! We will be in Spain around the end of August, we can provide an update then
great video as usual, Keep it up.
You guys should do more hostels , when you visit the more popular European cities, cut down on cost, when you can. Of course you will need to do hotel rooms from time to time for privacy. Note most hostels if not all do offer private rooms.
We will definitely look into this - thank you! I think also just choosing our cities more carefully is really the key - we've found we have a lot more fun in cities that more match our budget
Enjoy!! When we went my wife wanted to see the Ikea HQ LOL!!!!!
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
Lol - we talked about it as well :) did you have fun there?
Hey Guys!! 🤙🏽🤙🏽🤙🏽

Let me correct your title «In and from Italy, - Getting to Switzerland is harder than it seems.».
:)
@@LisaAndJosh I hope you'll enjoy Switzerland. 🇨🇭🥳
Buona la focaccia di ZENA🏴👍

Italian trains are always late or delayed 🙄
Well, the whole Switzerland has the same population of Lombardy and is as large as Lombardy and Veneto put together. It is much easier to be on time there than in Italy. Our trains can go as far as to Sicily riding on a ferry boat for that, more than 1,000 km away from Milan. Going through the Appennini mountains and calling at very important cities like Bologna, Firenze, Roma, Napoli, Salerno, Reggio Calabria, .... Can you see the difference? And it is not always true that Swiss trains are always on time! But yeah, Switzerland is on another world, as is Lombardy from the rest of Italy and in the same way my home is better that yours.... So generalizations do not always work!
Most of ours were fine! We just hit all the bad luck on this one
@@LisaAndJosh Yeah. It may well happen. And we are all very sorry when it happens. As an Italian caring for hospitality and courtesy, I only hope you were offered appropriate assistance on that occasion. Anyway, everybody is welcomed to our country particularly in this emergency period. We're all struggling to make things go for the best. We do sincerely apologise if something may go wrong.
