Hi all,
a small log of my 2 week holiday to Switzerland and Italy.
Spotting was not really planned, but on our way to Rome (to meet my girlfriends parents) we of course stopped at several fields and as my girlfriend actually kinda likes it, we stopped a bit more than planned
First stop was of course a very much planned hike to axalp:
