Still, it is nice to see an English library too! As to the American food, there is a small "American Market" here, but it is full of junk food that I don't usually eat anyways!<br /><br />Tash: More places to put on the list of places to visit! There are so many!Mayahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06163354395585207840noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4840472244943444411.post-87613993124347260782009-11-15T06:01:37.864+01:002009-11-15T06:01:37.864+01:00Such a well done portrait...I'm trying to get ...Such a well done portrait...I'm trying to get better at those. Isn't it great to find a bargain? I'm now on a roll about places to visit in CH: "Sils-Maria is an unspoiled and peaceful mountain village, seven miles from bustling St. Moritz." ... what brought that to mind was a library (Biblioteca Engiadinaisa) at the edge of the lake where we bought an old used copy in English of E.B. White's ONE MAN'S MEAT for a couple of franks. Treasures in unexpected places. I read the Magic Mountain in CH (20 years ago now) it took me a whole year, but I finished it. Luzerne train station store had a lot of newly published English books back then. ... Did you visit Gruyere yet? Touristy but so charming. -- Sorry, I'm getting carried away.Tashhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18098034737961019226noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4840472244943444411.post-71588591067304407812009-11-14T18:47:34.398+01:002009-11-14T18:47:34.398+01:00Oh gracious, this brought up a whole new picture f...Oh gracious, this brought up a whole new picture for me. I love to read, but never thought about the ramifications of finding English reading material. How far are you two from an American base of some sort? You passports and American ID's will get you into the PX, BX and probably the commissary too. You know should you be needing American goods. Like, er, um, hmmm. Potato chips and ketchup (I remember not liking as well the European versions.)Celehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11471318342104018488noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4840472244943444411.post-80701903908613295992009-11-13T18:53:11.028+01:002009-11-13T18:53:11.028+01:00This is a lovely photo of the librarian!
