Liechtenstein & Switzerland, 10-22 September 2014

We decided to test our new Toyota Rav4 this autumn, and take it out on a camping trip.
Having previously visited the UK, Belgium and France, the 'new' countries within driving range were limited.
Eventually we decided to go to Switzerland, visiting Liechtenstein on the way.

We left home at September 10, 2014, made a 2 nights stopover in Germany (Stuttgart), before we entered Liechtenstein
at September 12. We stayed here for 2 nights, visited the whole country (;-p) and even did an afternoon-trip to Austria,
before we drove to the St. Moritz area in Southeast-Switserland. From here we travelled through southern Swiss to end up near Zürich
at September 21. With another stopover in Germany, we were back home at September 22. We have seen some beautiful sceneries,
did a lot of hiking, but didn't encounter that much birds or other wildlife (apart from some Alpine Marmots).
Probably the wrong season for a lot of birds. But still we enjoyed the holiday-break for sure, so no reasons to complain!
