Today after madly dashing off some important emails in the morning that I hope I haven’t sent too late, Stephan and I took the train into Germany for some shopping. We live on Im Surinam, which is right behind Badische station, which is a German station in Switzerland. There’s boarder control and everything, but nobody was manning it! For 10.50 Euro we got a 24 hour team pass (up to five people can ride on this one ticket) and after a few stops were off to do some shopping in the charming town of Lörrach. We had breakfast at a small bakery, then went to the Migros there. Supposedly the prices are such that the break even point of shopping in Germany rather than Switzerland is 80 kilometers! It was hard to compare since the Euro is stronger than the Franc, but I take their word for it.
