In Switzerland There Are Sockets That Fit 3 Plugs At A Time
NewBird 2 years ago
Swiss sockets are bloody annoying as a foreigner though, this type of socket doesn't work with the kind of adapter you can have for France or Germany. The 2 pins part is the same but if the "body" of your plug is round rather than this funny not-quite-hexagon, you can't use it. And they don't have these sockets everywhere so you can be in some places with the adapter you already have and it all works fine, then you go to another location with this type of socket and suddenly you're scuppered! I do know the solution is to buy another adapter but I hate having things that get rarely used!

Railways On The Mountain Rigi
Ban-One 2 years ago
It's popular. For good reason. In Winter it's nice to ski and to sled. Drive down, take the train back up...and so on. But in summer it's a great place to hike. The trail from the "Seebodenalp" up to the top is a fantastic thing to do. Or to walk/hike along the mountain ridge is pretty easy. If you enjoy hiking down, the trail from top down to "Greppen" is fantastic. So much to do and see up here.

cerinamroth 2 years ago
Exactly! I know plenty of people who say "cycling's fine if it's flat" but ignore the fact that you get used to the hills and it's good for you! Where there's a will (and relatively good baseline health), there's a way. For people who say "cycling's fine if it's sunny", just get good outdoor gear. People cycle in all weathers in Germany too. If more people demand good cycling infrastructure and it is integrated into city planning, literally everyone benefits.
