Journey to Interlaken
... the government slowly relaxed its 1542 ban on Catholic religious services in 1842. One of the highlights was the Aarzelghus. Built in 1736, it is one of the last remaining residences in a typical style of Interlaken at the time. It has impressive relief carvings such as friezes, corbels and inscriptions. Lisa and I then headed back to the train station, where we caught a private train (i.e. we couldn’t use our Eurail passes) run ...

A Swedish Christmas in Switzerland
... with the snow turning icy following another cold snap where the temperature plummeted to - 21 degrees... The saintly patience of Greg and Fi helped me down one section of the red slope. Justin wasn't quite so fortunate in his efforts. The loud scraping noise of skis sliding across the ice, unable to get any traction is the stuff of nightmares for us amateurs. Fi and I turned back up the mountain just in time to see Justin careening down on his ...
