Driving Through Switzerland

After Lahr we decided to head south to the warmer part of Europe like Italy and Greese. So we entered “Venice” as our destination into our Sat-nav system “Jane”. To get to Italy from Germany we had to go through the Swiss Alps, or under as we discovered. We got caught in traffic for about 2 hours trying to get in the massive 23 km tunnel that goes under the worst of the mountains. The delay was because of a traffic light at the start of the tunnel that makes cars go in pauses. After finally getting through the tunnel we discovered that it was the same so we added another extra 3 hours in traffic. In that 3 hours we started giving the other drivers names based on their personalities. For example we were beside a guy who was face timing his girlfriend while smoking and driving, he also looked a lot like someone from the movie “Grease” so we named him “Grease”. There was also “Diva”, Scary face”, “Mr. Fiat”, “Creepy Business Guys”, and “Miss Agressive”.



After Finnaly getting out of Switzerland it was about 9 at night and we didn't want to drive
anymore becuase it was getting dark so we spent the night in Millano. The next day, after feasting on the free breakfast we hightailed it out of Millano to Venice which was only 3 hours away.
