I must admit that although the meal does not have to be "gourmet" just =
good, I often remember the days of a trip by the wonderful places we go =
for lunch or dinner. the atmosphere, the food, the interesting people we =
see at each eating spot.   We are new to culture chat although we havd =
been on Idyll Chat for some time.  We were really interested in Vance =
Roy's answer to the question about burials in Switzerland.  We have =
always been curious, or should we ssy that we have a morbid curiousity =
about how things are handled in CH.  We have never seen a funeral =
director or funeral home.  What happens when someone dies?.  Where does =
the body get taken?  Who prepares it fir burial?  Where is the funeral =
held?   Hope someone can answer these questions. =20
