We took the train from Locarno
to Andermatt to cycle over the Gotthard Pass. When we
got to Andermatt there were many police around and an
armored vehicle blocking the road.
We discovered that Russian President Medvedev was visiting
Switzerland and happened to be arriving in Andermatt
to lay a wreath on a monument. A few minutes after we
arrived four impressively large and immaculate identical
helicopters landed behind a barricade. The one included
here shows Medvedev at the second window (the one in
the dark suit).
