You'll have a great trip. If you can, stop at the Villa D'Este on the southern tip of Lake Como for a drink (or breakfast on your way to Lausanne). It's one of those bucket list places to bring your wife. It'll go a long way to her forgiveness for the way you've been driving! Enjoy.

Seriously, I gave the IRS over a year's worth of lease payments in (additional)
taxes, so I decided (somewhat after the fact) not to blow another $20k on the
vacation ... hence we shortened it from 14 days to 9

Sounds like cutting back on shoe shopping while in Europe was not an option
