Portofino  … lovely place!
that reminds me of a great Italy trip a few years ago

[Ted]

The next morning, the view from the window…

Camogli and its seafront is indeed a lovely little costal village being not far away from Genoa, our next stop.

One of the reasons to head for Genoa on this particular day was to meet with Mr Volvo, who took of part of his afternoon off.
Here he can be seen right in front of the church (on the left) next to Mrs Foxy.

Mr Volvo send me a picture in the morning of a cedro lemon from his father's garden…

This very lemon ended up being a present from Mr Volvo.

Genoa ended up being very nice experience, if not thanks to Mr Volvo for showing us the many corners of the old city.

The next day we drove the car through Switzerland to Colmar, France…

The next morning we hit the road hard and didn't stop until we were safe in the Alsace region of France, near the lovely town of Colmar.

Actually, we stopped at Bernard Antony's little cheese shop…

This little shop (and the cheese cellars underneath) is rather famous in the world of French cheeses and Michelin Star restaurants.

(Needless to mention that we bought a few cheeses to take back home to Moscow.)

Dinner was had in Colmar.

It turned out to be quite an interesting contrast after days of Ligurian cuisine.

[Ted]

The town of Colmar turned out to be as picturesque as Foxy remembered it.

We left Colmar around noon…

…in order to spend the afternoon and night in Nürnberg.

The trip back to Berlin and the plane ride to Moscow was pleasant but uneventful for a jet-setting bear.

The Cut This Out was a message from a member who asked that his post be removed as he commented on the thread before it had been completed.

It was not a comment to get rid of the thread….

English to English can be hard sometimes 

[Giles]

Well had I sent that report, I would have said "delete my post" not "cut this out".  Paula was confused too.

[Chris]

And as I said, my overreaction can be corrected.  The restored thread is here.

Apologies to all.

And really, @trail and arrow, it is genuinely brilliant.
