Rudi,
Is it really less than 300 Km from Geneve to Lichtenstein? I've driven from Lichtenstein to Zurich before and it seemed pretty far. Perhaps that was because I was looping around lost in Chur for a while.
I take it you live in a Deutche Canton?

stimpy: Geneva-Chur-Lichtenstein - that's about like going LAX - SNA with a SAN detour!
nice try / but very delicate theme: "Deutscher Kanton" = "german county" (that's what a former northern neibhour of Switzerland, who wanted to create a 1'000 year lasting empire, called our country). Correct is that I live in the "swiss-german speaking part of Switzerland".

Sorry, I didn't mean to cast aspertions.
I've always been fascinated by Switzerland. I thought the cantons were generally referred to as Italian, German or French?
So which Canton do you reside in?
Sprechen Sie Raeto Romanic?
