St Moritz

Our overnight stop in St Moritz was an eye opener. The place just oooozes luxury. On every street, you could see the evidence of lots and lots of money pouring in. Designer shops, expensive hotels, immaculate houses. With our backpacks, we felt like something the cat dragged in.

It was only missing one thing - rich people. The place was a ghost town and most shops were closed as the ski season recently ended. But it was interesting to see anyway. Until we had lunch and nearly bankrupted ourselves. (Cough, cough, how much???!!) We found out later that St Moritz is known as the most expensive town in Switzerland. Easy to believe.

At least the views were free! And they were spectacular.
