Bern, Switzerland:
The train ride to Switzerland was one of the best yet. My first impression of Switzerland was how clean it is...then we walked in a store and were overwhelmed by a chocolate smell. It's been hard to resist, although we have given in a time or two.
We meet some folks from Tennessee, two girls, one had just graduated from Austin Peay.
They were making a similar trip around Europe.
Our favorite spot here was at a rose garden that overlooked the whole city. It was beautiful. We spent some time there reading.
We continue to do lots of walking on footpaths.
We've walked along the river to some smaller townships and the path into Bern from our campsite is a massive wooded park.
We were excited to find an international church in Bern. There was a potluck afterwards and we made some new friends and we were invited to diner the following night.
