Coffee and chocolate

Lucky you, i've never been to Lucerne. How long are you going for?

The highest mountain, i've last been up, was mount Pichincha, years ago. I was struggling at 4500 metres then, having difficulty breathing.

Hmm, i'm grossly unfit now.

A week, Ani - to be honest I'm not keen on the idea of cable cars as not good with heights and the only time I've been in a chair lift the bar wasn't shut properly and drifted out of reach once we moved, so I don't have much confidence in them! I'm hoping to go on the lake, though - love boats. And chocolate - and cheese - so plenty to enjoy.

4,500 metres is a long way up - hope you walked! My one claim to fame regarding heights is that I walked right the way up the Eiffel Tower. Coming down was easier though. I think I would struggle a bit to do it now.

You had best be the first to try the virtual cake, Lemon Tree.

I think as it's virtual money you could probably indulge in a few piano lessons if we don't tell Martin? :money:Only if you practice, though. It could be virtual practice on a virtual piano, though you might get some strange looks depending where said virtual piano is located.

As for cheese scones (shakes head sadly) you have missed a treat.

Lemon_Tree

how about i leave the scones to you and do my virtual scales on my actual piano. It's got to earn it's keep some how other than just for putting things on. I shall start tomorrow as it's a bit late to start tonight.
virtual cake is lovely though. Very good for my virtual diet

You are putting me to shame, LT
Haven't done any scales, real or virtual, and have eaten real cake (made by DH and very yummy).
