Beautiful Berne

by Rhondaj - last update: Nov 14, 2004

Wednesday, July 21--Bern

weather- sunny and hot 30 C

We were going to save a trip to Bern for a rainy day, but since we haven't had one yet, we decided to just go!

We were actually glad for the 4 miles of arcaded shopping areas because of the shade. And shop we did.

This is a really nice trip from Kandersteg because it is only an hour train ride---and no connections! Just to keep us on our toes though, when we were all set to leave Bern, waiting for our train to come in on the proper platform, the one occupying it broke down. (Yes! A Swiss train broke down!) So at the last minute, when they finally figured out that the broke down train was not going to start up again, they changed our platform and we wound up scrabbling around anyway!

 Albert Einstein stuck it out a lot longer than I did -- 7 years at Kramgasse 49! I lived in that same building as a student for one semester, but then moved to a place that wasn't so damp. Funny they only put up a plaque for Einstein and not for me, LOL.
