Thun - one night stopover before Italy
After 4 nights in Grindelwald we had worked out that the small town of Thun (an hour from there) had a direct 7:54am train to Milan. So we did a one night stopover in Thun, a pretty little town with the typical swiss bridges we had seen in Lucern on a previous holiday.
It was a small town so it didn't take long to explore, but the hightlight was definitely a small chocolate/coffee ...

**My 21st Birthday and Weekend in Switzerland!! **
... is what I had to eat, by the way :) . That's the type of place it was, we liked it a lot! The rest of the night and Sunday we stayed in Interlaken, did a bit more shopping, relaxing, and then headed back to Florence late Sunday afternoon. It was a nice weekend to get away from Florence and experience a different culture! This next weekend we are heading to Milan, which is a couple hours north of here, should be a good time!! Ciao ciao!! ...
