St Mortiz and the Bernina Pass

This morning we left Fawlty Towers Hotel behind and took a series of trains to St Moritz.  First it was a short trip from the train station at the airport to Zurich HB (Zurich central station).   Then from Zurich to Chur and then a change onto our final train into St Mortiz where we had lunch alongside the lake.

After lunch there was an excursion on the Bernina Express train over the Bernina Pass.  We came very close to the border with Italy where we stopped for some cheese and wine in the garden of a local restaurant before heading back.   The views were spectacular, including an amazing rainbow.   Despite the earlier forecast for rain it remained dry and the visibility was excellent.

This evening we had a buffet dinner at our hotel the Reine Victoria in St Moritz.  
Tomorrow there is a full day's train journey, including lunch, to get us to Zermatt.
