I was right and the drinks went down very well. In fact we went through most of our duty free purchases. The result is a late start to the morning. We managed a nice fry up then organised ourselves and into the car. In about 20 k's we were in Interlaken where we wandered around just enjoying yet another beautiful town. There were paragliders jumping from the mountain and circling the city, no doubt getting amazing views. Needless to say it's something that I'll n...

It was time for more travels so we organised some close friends, packed our bags & headed off to Switzerland. We met Jo & Sharif at Gatwick and after searching the airport, & finding, Jacs lost jacket we boarded the plane for a bumpy old ride to Zurich. We landed safely, grabbed our hire car and headed off into the night on the wrong side of the road. It was tough unlearing all the driving skills from my past and spinning them around but hopefully tha...

There is always so much more I want to say but never get it in, but it does give everyo...

Definately too big for a little man but I guess he was big in his place in history. From there we spent a few hours wandering around see...

We had a nice 8 hours sleep last night that we really needed. Are bodies and especially our legs and feet are very sore. We woke, had cheese on toast & headed to the station for the 45 mins train ride to the Palace of Versailles. The train was pretty full but we grabbed a seat & off we went. Today's overcast but still warm so it will be another great day outdoors. At Versailles we grabbed some baguettes then made our way into the palace beginning with th...
