The Alps addendum

Basel, August 5, 2015

We must be in a bit of a fog this morning. It is 3:00 a.m. in Mason.  We totally left Lichtenstein out of the last posting.  We left Davos and drove to Lichtenstein, the last monarcy in the Alps. Lichtenstein is one of the five smallest countries in the world along with Monacco, Andorra, San Marino, and Vatican City; all of which we have visited.  We stopped in Vaduz and walked around a bit.  We think Vaduz is the capital of Lichtenstein but don't know that for a fact.  What we do know is that Valduz is a beautiful town. There is a lovely pedestrian area with shops but most noteworthy is the art.  All along the street there were wonderful statues and objects d' art.  It was great to see a city so committed to art.  We left Lichtenstein and went on our merry way towards Basel.
