Ummm, do those mountains have a special place in your heart? 🙂

Yes, a little bit. Hard choice between the Berner Oberland and the Val Gardena in Italy. We love them both1

Your pictures brought back great memories of an October long weekend we spent in Lauterbrunnen a few years ago. My favorite picture then was of a flock of paragliders landing off target in a pasture full of curious cows. But that cheese! When we arrived, I thought “we’ll have to take some home to Germany.” After eating stinky cheese in EVERY restaurant dish for four days, I believe I had enough for a lifetime!
Enjoying your travels through these blog posts. Loved our years living in Europe. Would go back in a heartbeat. Enjoy it all!

Hi Ruth! Sorry to be so tardy in responding. I lost track of comments. We took a zillion photos of paragliders. I had to resist the urge to post them all! Thanks for reading and traveling along!

Oh my those mountains behind you are spectacular. And you both look AMAZING in the photos. It doesn’t look very busy (my kind of place) either! I’ve only read book mentioning
Bern before and YOU ARE THERE! You’re my kind of people for sure. Love reading your adventures. Kim Freed should be visiting you soon too.

Marcia, I am very late in responding! Thank you for your nice compliments. Retirement agrees with us.
Yes, Kim will be here the 6th. So excited to see her. You giys should come over some time.
Bern was not busy with tourists, at least not American tourists.

One place I have never been is Harder Kulm. Also, we could see the Rothorn from our walking around the Giessbach Falls and we’ve never been there either.
Oh well, I guess we have to go back, eh?

Always good to have a reason to return!

Your photos were very nice. I want that bunny and mouse. We also tend to rent when we travel, as we did on our last trip to Rome. We found in Rome that it was better to eat lunch in, as everything closes down for so long after lunch. We enjoy a siesta too.

Yes, we love “la pausa” as well, but on these hiking trips we are seldom back in our digs before 15;30 or 16;00, so lunch in a “rifugio” or restaurant is the order of the day. The late return makes dinner in that much more attractive.
