... schoongemaakt en eens goed naar bepaalde houdbaarheidsdatums gekeken :)<br>Piekobello is hij nu maar het heeft wel wat uren gekost.. Maar had het er graag voor over!<br>Lester was tijdens mij schoonmaak woede aan het houthakken!! en heeft gezorgd dat er weer een goede voorraad te verstoken is komende wintertijden!!<br><br>Via een tussenstop in Frankfurt terug naar huis waar Job en Elana (de katten) ons met luid miauw onthaalden.<br><br>Annemarth

... the "Her Majesty's Secret Service" movie in the late 60's. <br>In case you weren't a fan, they had plenty of notifications of this fact to let you know. <br><br>In spite of it being from a package mix, I can tell you that it will likely go down as being the most memorable hot chocolate I ever had at Piz Gloria. Actually make that hot chocolate mixed with Grand Marnier. Hey, the Swiss felt the restaurant needed revolving and I felt the ...

... and another day of biking around the entire city, we set off at midnight to drive on the Autobahn to Bern. So instead of spending the night on a sleeping train, we took turns driving and sleeping (thank you Alex for the wonderful neck pillow!). <br><br><br><br>We drove into Interlaken around 9, into GORGEOUS views of mountains and lakes (thanks Jess!!). Because we were pooped from almost no sleep, we spent most of the day sleeping ...

... far too much food as usual &amp; did some wandering around the city before we made our way up to the lake to check out the wine tasting boats. For CHF20 you can go onboard any or all of the 10+ boats and taste as many wines as you can handle. There are even a few restaurants on board for when you need a little food before heading right back out there try more wine. Now I'm not the biggest fan of wine, I'm getting into a little now in my old age ...

... Interlaken, we ate lunch along the bank of the Aare while we waited for out train up into the mountains. The train to Lauterbrunnen was about 25 minutes. The town inspired Goethe and Byron, according to our cheesy guidebook, and it was even the model for some of Tolkein's elven villages. It is hard to dismiss those claims. Lauterbrunnen sits at the base of a U-shaped glacial valley with wispy waterfalls dropping over cliffs a kilometer high. The ...

... sites were awesome and then we hit.... clouds. Thus we could not see the 73 alps and were stuck with only clouds and looking at the ground under our feet. So we ate our picnic in the clouds and sat making the most of our limited view. Then we took the commuter gonola which held around 30 people but would have been comfy with 10 the tired weary and weak were crammed together for a 5minute nauseating descent through the clouds to... LAND! It was beneath us ...

... It was very Heidi-like, I wish I knew how to yodel... That evening I sat myself down with a group of Californian girls (and an American) after overhearing talk about Paris, and we just chatted until after dark. I amused them with stories about you Brits... The American girl was meant to go to Jungfraujoch the next day, but the weather wasn't good. So I invited her to come with me to see Lauterbrunnen (thanks Jacques) and the Trummelbach falls. Off we went. We walked the roughly ...

... diet of butterflies, insects, and field mice. <br><br>Speaking of, you wouldn't believe the amount of wildflowers and butterflies here. Also, speaking of nature, I saw a marmot the other day. I was sitting in a field reading and he popped out of the ground, screamed and looked around, and then he disappeared into his little hole. <br><br>Well, I think I'm off to farm. It's been raining so much lately that I haven't been out. Now I farm.

... pews, though. Some of them have high wrap-around back rests. (I took a picture of them so that you can see what I am talking about.) Just outside the church were some of the most picturesque buildings I have seen here in Europe. The pictures should be fantastic. I&#8217;m glad I had this time by myself so that I could explore this part of Lucerne. I really got to experience the beauty of the city. (BevNote: While I was ...

... a tv and that night every station was going live to John Kennedy Jr.'s plane crash. We went for dinner after 10PM and then hung out at a bar called "Movie". On July 18th we took a one hour boat ride on Lake Luzern. We saw beautiful houses on the mountains. From 3-6PM we toured the Swiss Museum of Transport and Communication. It was very interactive and a ton of fun!
