Do you have favorite webcams you look at that are located in Switzerland, Germany and Norway (perhaps related to trains and around the world) you'd like to share their sites with us? I've listed mine below.Since being in Europe this summer, I've tried to find the best webcams available so that I could continue my vacation via cyberspace. (Yeah, right.) Of course, for me it is optimal to find those that are associated with say Swiss, German or Norweigen railroads, but I have not been very successful. What I have found is plenty of webcams in southeastern Switzerland where I rode the Bernina Express. However, webcams of the SBB near train stations seem non-operational. Here are ones I like that are located in southeastern Switzerland and in the Stuttgart area: Chur Hauptbahnhof (only the front unfortunately): http://www.suedostschwei.../webcams/index.cfm?id=13Many points in the Alps, including 2 views of the runways at the highest airport in the Alps (or so I am told): http://www.pontresina.com/011stm_0602_en.htmNice clear webcam of Heilbronn marketplace area:http://webcam.stadt-heilbronn.de/Lucerne by the river:http://www.citycams.ch/webcams.cfm?sel=lu&start=6 Ludwigsberg Castlehttp://www.blueba.de/Aktuell/aktuell.htmlCenter of Stuttgart real time webcam...amazing...see people walking, cyclists riding through, etc.http://www.stuttgart-tourist.de/DEU/ipunkt/webcam_schlossplatz.htm Stuttgart airport gates and terminal:http://www.stuttgart-airport.com/en/content_webcam.php?submenu_id=8&number=1 Downtown Stuttgart panorama:http://webcam.versatel.d...halt/panorama_index.html

I have a Mac laptop [xx(](even though most of my computers are PC I do like Macs for some things[:0]) and there is a feature called "Dashboard" This is a page you can set up with "widgets" that are active when you toggle the page. How this applies: I have 3 webcam widgets always on my dashboard- One is the Lighthouse Cams, which rotates views from lighthouses around the world (Jesolo Italy,Point Lonsdale Australia, Goat Harbor Maine, et cet.) The second is California Coastal Cams which rotates views along Cali. The third is Venice Cams, which has a 3 cam rotation of Piazza SMarco, G Canal, and some random calle. I don't know if these are available outside the Mac OS, but I recommend them all.

Svein and others - Thanks for sharing the great cam sites. Svein, that website with webcams in Norway is fabulous. Unlike many of the webcam sites the ones on that website actually seem to work. Thanks much.

Now that's a coincidence! Schwäbisch Hall is the place where I stay every year during the Spielwarenmesse, in fact, I've already planned to stay there again next February. And you are right, it is a wonderful little town. |

There is a forum member here who is from Hall, Ira, but he has not posted in a long time. He has the Hall coat of arms in his signature. Its a small world!
