I am going to pull a Prank

I finalized my trip to Switzerland yesterday. I have always wanted to go to the Matterhorn so I extended my trip 2 days to go to Zermatt and then Milan. Just found out that one of my classmates lives in Zermatt.

He should be easy to find. He owned a famous watch store in Switzerland. I am going to show up and pretend I am lost. I am pretty sure he will remember me!

That I had your ability to travel my friend.
On my end, that would include traversing the unbelieveable battlefield above the clouds in the Italian Dolomites where, a profound battlefield engaged the Italians and Austrians. To this day, any number of those WWI structures can be found far up in those Alps and....I've found those Dolomites, just as a battleground, so unbelieveable and where trekking reveals so many unbelieveable landscapes....
Today of course, you can tour that area.....so.....depending on your ability, consider that one day so I can vicariously live through you.[image deleted]

@akindheart That's a relief. As a younger guy in the military, I'd traveled a bit around Southeast Asia, but nothing on the Euro side.
I'm a history nerd......and to be able to hike and explore the Dolomites would be, in my book, wholly profound.....I cannot wrap my head around that campaign.....hauling huge artillery up over mountains, men clinging to cliff sides to reach objectives......that campaing was SO crazy....and yet, today, you can still hike and visit it....and many of those cliff buildings, carved in to the rock faces..and then there are the troop tunnels, bored out by engineers....SO amazing
