Interesting video about controling floods

Now that we have left the land of good cheese.  I still find myself still following swissinfo news.   It has some great articles about the country, its people, and place.  Here is one about flood predicting on Lake Thun.

Bernina Pass Ride

Bernina Pass Railroad and Autoroad head south and west from the Engadine Valley. On a nice summer day, my friend Peter and I road the train over the pass into Italy. After fueling up on some pasta, we returned, but this time I was on my bike. Going over the pass twice allowed us to see the glaciers, valleys and cows from different perspectives and lighting.
