Mystery of the day



Who thought it would be a good idea to use this particular picture in promotional material for the country of Liechtenstein?

I wonder what kind of race it is. He sure doesn't look very athletic! Drinking race, perhaps? Or apple pressing (moscht=apple juice)??

LOL - I'm thinking it must be some sort of eating race... sausage, roschti, cheese... cheese and roschti-stuffed sausage....

Dude, I'd totally go to Liechtenstein based solely off this photo...

Liechtenstein, schmiechtenstein! I was all excited when I read about the open sledding runs at Malbun and Steg, until my husband pointed out that one has to walk up with the sleds to enjoy the ride down. Gah!!! If I had seen this poster before, I wouldn't have wasted time trying to find a hotel in Malbun. Pfft!

Sledding-deprived one in Villigen

One more negative effect of global warming...topless Liechtensteiny men.

I'm intrigued. Looks to me that Liechtenstein has done away with those prudish "no shirt, no service" rules that keep me out of so many tempting restaurants elsewhere. I wonder if suspenders are still required though?

i'm so there.

You guys are cracking me up. Must do some research into Liechtensteinian suspender legislation ....
