Vacation Day 14: Bernina Express from Chur to Tirano Italy and return.

This was our third day on our Swiss Rail Pass. We boarded the Bernina Express train in Chur for  our trip over the Bernina Pass from the Engadine region into the Valle di Poschiavo and on to Tirano  in Italy. After a 2.5 hour lunch stop in Tirano, we re-boarded the Bernina Express for our trip  back to Chur.
