Caprino (Little Goat!)


Cute village of Caprino on the Lake of Lugano, in Switzerland, and a teeny frog! You can only get to the village by boat or by walking through the forest along the lake. It's so relaxing and quiet since there are no cars. The houses are really nice, they all have wine cellars on the bottom and the living area is on the second floor, and all have an amazing view of the lake.

Verzasca Valley, Switzerland


The Verzasca Dam is a stomach-churning 220 meters (722 ft.) high, I couldn't even get close to the edge! It was the same dam in Goldeneye that Bond bungee jumps off of. Brave tourists can do the jump. The Roman Bridge (Ponte dei Salti) in Lavertezzo and the beautiful Verzasca River.
