A sign is shown which reads 'Lugano', and a few views show of Swiss city, before there is a ride up a mountain on gondolas, followed by a panoramic view of a lake. Another sign reads 'Sentiero Gandria' and several views take in narrow the streets of the town.
The next sequence opens with a close up of a sign which reads 'Monte Lema' and there are several shots that show an ascent in the Alps via ski lifts. The next sign reads 'Luino', which is the name of an Italian market town where locals sell fruit, vegetables and souvenirs.
