Day on the Lake
Interlaken is the land and city between two alpine lakes near Bern (the capitol). We went by train from Seftigen to Thun to catch the ship that criss-crosses the lake. We were visiting Heather, Heinz, and their baby Jackson who are friends of our daughter KC (isn’t it great when your kids become adults and share their friends with you!)
. We had a beautiful, awesome day in the low 70′s,clear, snowy alps, azure water.
Swiss life is amazing, gentle, and tasty. The minimum wage is close to $25 an hour, but then it’s $7 for a simple cup of Starbucks. The public transportation is great, lots of pasture and farms with big-eyed cows wearing their bells (not all of them, these are prizes that they get to wear around their necks if they are best in show). And every home is required to have a bomb shelter and air purification system in it. Heather and Heinz’s made for a great wine cellar with a heavy thick door though it was kind of scary.
