Leaving the Gotthard Pass


We slept in as long as possible, since it was raining. The weather changes pretty quickly, and we were hoping for a break. After lingering as long as possible over breakfast, we checked out the museum. There we got an interesting story that the Gotthard Pass was at the original dichotomy of good and evil. Of course they Did not say which side of the pass was the good and which was the evil!


We took off, and were greeted with a sea of fog and light rain. The road dissapeared nearly 30 feet in front of us.  


As we made it down the weather got better.  We stopped at a small place to have a coffee to warm up. It's 45 degrees out. But they didn't take credit cards and of course we had no Swiss francs. Finally Connor rummaged out two euro coins and we could afford one cup of coffee!
