Chffing down
... and we eventually won back my soggy washing.
A productive day at work, got lots of my jobs crossed off the list-hurrah! Yummy staff dinner from the No 14 kitchen of creamy mushroom pasta-sounds a bit dull? it really wasn't!

We actually attempted to organise all three of the latter during our stay, however were rather disappointed to find they were either unavailable in winter, or costed in the upwards of four to five-hundred Francs. Indeed, Interlaken also marked the first time we truly noticed just how expensive Switzerland can be, finding ourselves barely able to afford eating ...
