Hi Friends,
–
I’ll be in Europe for a two-week travel in September. During the stay, my son and his fiancée are planning to spend two days for wedding photos.
–
Wonder any of you have any good locations in Switzerland and Italy (not necessarily big cities) to recommend for such occasion.
–
I’d appreciate it very much.
–
I’ll arrive in Munich first and the rest of the journey hasn’t been finalized yet. Perhaps we will be meeting somewhere, sometime then.

Edit:
Received many good suggestions in just a few hours. Thank you!

We just came back from Europe last night. For Switzerland, go to Lucerne, cross the lake and also go up Stanserhorn by furnicular and cable car. Google Lucerne and Stanserhorn. Send me email and I’ll ‘friend’ you in Facebook so that you can see our vacation pictures.

Thank you George. I did look at some photos of Lucerne on the Internet. Unfortunately, it is not on the route we plan so far but I’ll keep the place on our alternate schedule.
Regarding Facebook, I currently have it for my family only. Pardon me even though I love to see your vacation photos.

Hi,
I didn’t subscribe to your website, but I follow you a lot since you have great sim ideas and some really neat advises for FSX or P3D :-)
I live near Lausanne, so if you go in the area, just drop me a line, I’ll show you the airport, and if you want to have a VFR ride over the Alps, just about the same :-)
Keep up the good job Tom.

Hi Tom,
A couple of friends of mine were traveling to Switzerland few times but they are in Cambodia and Laos at this moment so I don’t have a contact with them.
However, I have in my head one hotel and area they were talking about:

We’re living in Switzerland at the moment and have had the chance to visit a few beautiful places. The choice of location really depends on what sort of setting they want.
By the water? Lots of lovely lakes here. For example, Chateau Chillon is an old castle built on a rock a few metres from the shore on Lake Geneva. Mountains? There are some spectacular peaks that are easily accessible, such as Mt Pilatus. Old cities? Nearly every city or large town has an older section with narrow cobble-stone streets and loads of character.

Sounds like I threw out a too general question. Probably snowy mountain background is a natural choice. As you said, Switzerland is already a beautiful place.
Thanks.

Hi I live in Munich and fly a Cessna 182 south of Munich. So if you are interesting in flying, please let me know. As for a location, you could try: Villa del Balbianello, Lake Como, northern Italy, they used this Villa as background in a Star Wars movie http://www.ilporticcioloviaggi.com/portfolios/villa-balbianello/

Interlaken is one of my favorite spots in Switzerland. You can catch an electric train to the top of the Jungfrau and it goes through the Eiger (Clint East filmed Eiger Sanction there). It’s a trip that if a MUST. Enjoy! email me if you would like more info.
