LIECHTENSTEIN......A tiny doubly landlocked Alpine country in central Europe......It is bordered by Switzerland to West and South and by Austria to the East and North. It is just over 62 square miles. It is ruled by a Prince and you could easily run into him in the grocery store. This patch of Alpine meadows, craggy peaks, and vineyards finds itself wedged between Austria and Switzerland. What it lacks in size, Liechtenstein makes up for with a mighty landscape that swoops up from the marshy green banks of the Rhine into the cloud-kissed Alps. This little country grants us a glimpse into Europe's oldest traditions.......like Lenten bonfires and autumn's Wimmlete......wine time. We did spend a few hours hear but I would love to go back someday and spend some time.
