I don't think first or last name "R"s were specified. And yes, I admit it, I am a secret Aussie. LOVE almost everything from Down Under. Another non-R peson, but an Aussie would be Erik Thomson (I think that's how his name is spelled, from PACKED TO THE RAFTERS/PTTR)...oh my.

We went up a funicular to the mountain top which still had snow in summer, then half way down walked across an alpine meadow to a lodge for lunch in the fresh mountain air.
