It’s Sunday so it must be time for our weekly virtual trip to beautiful Switzerland. Today takes us back to 2011. We had the same routine for every Sunday we had in this stunning country. Up early to catch the first boat to Interlaken. So the day would start with breathtaking views from the hotel room.
After breakfast it was a short walk to the boat stop. Spiez always has the most stunning flower displays.
The Lake Thun trip lasts a couple of hours and is just the most relaxing thing I have ever experienced.
The views of the The Alps are never ending.
It’s amazing how the Swiss manage find the most amazing places for roads, tunnels and buildings.
The lake is deep, very deep and it’s almost hypnotic. The colours are frequently breathtaking.
Eventually the lake narrows as we arrive in Interlaken.
Hawklad would always love to spend his trip outside, watching the mountains slowly drift past. He also loved listening on this trip to the traditional Swiss Choir.
Then it’s back to the hotel for a balanced diet of Heinz Tomato Ketchup with some optional food.
My sister lives in Switzerland and we have been to Interlaken/Lake Thunz brings back memories 💗

There’s something very calming about water. That portion of Heinz tomato ketchup was at least three of his 5-a-day! Then when you add in the potatoes – bingo.

You know what’s amazing about these photos, it doesn’t look cold in them at all. Even though I’m sure it was a little chilly, it still looks really nice and warm…Like Jamaica or somewhere like that. I don’t know if it’s Switzerland itself, or just how you and your partner managed to capture everything.

The water is always cold, but you soon get used to the temp. In summer it gets much hotter than England.

When we passe the lake Thun and the villages like Interlaken and Spiez on our trip to Grindelwald past Monday, I thought of your posts and wanted to go there specifically. It is such a beautiful area. But this won’t happen this time. It is still a 3 hours ride (one way). But thanks to you, I can be there anyway, today. We are planning on going to Locarno at the Lago Maggiore next Tuesday.
