As you may recall we chose to go to Schaffhausen as it’s very close to the Rhine Falls, which is the largest waterfall in Europe. OK, it’s not as high as the Angel Falls, nor as wide as either the Niagara or Victoria Falls, but it’s impressive nonetheless. As with the Tinguely fountain, a static image doesn’t really do it justice, so today you have not one but TWO videos. I spoil you.

And, as if that wasn’t enough, since you are possibly wondering where all the big mountains have gone, I’ve included some photos of our journey home.
From Schaffhausen we headed east to the small town of Arbon, which sits on the shores of Lake Constance, or the Bodensee, just a few miles from the Austrian border. After lunch we headed south, through Glarus and over the Klausen and Furka passes back to our beloved Rhone valley. During our trip, we travelled through 16 of the 26 Swiss cantons.

It also seems someone has found a new and potentially much more useful role for “Mr President”. (See pic 15 in the second gallery).

      Thank you Maxine. I hope you had a look at the other 4 posts too. The first 2 were mainly of art galleries. (Sorry to see the Foxes implode the other day too and the tigers look pretty much doomed now. πŸ˜₯)

        I am working backwards Mike, so will take a look… I am glad you brought up the subject of football before me… Jim and I were in the car yesterday afternoon and we squirmed every time they announced, β€˜there’s been another goal at the DW stadium’ This, of course, followed all the squirming when the Foxes played Bournemouth! I have no idea what’s going on! 😒

          It should be a good game. I’ve no idea how, but Sheffield seem to be playing well and getting some good results. My daughter lives in Sheffield and she and her husband decided to support Wednesday (as it’s just down the road from where they live) and then Utd got promoted! Talk about backing the wrong horse!

          Ooh that’s a pity! It will be a good game, the Blades are a force to be reckoned with just now…
