Beautiful Week!

(Pam) My German class is going well.  Learning a lot; meeting new people.  Three people left the class, leaving us with a group of 5.  

Anyway, I decided to take a walk around Bern today.  The weather has been great all week -- no rain!  My Australian friend from the German class, Tony, suggested I go to the tourist center to see the Bern Show in 3D.  The tourist center is located right next to the bear pit.  I got a chance to catch the bears enjoying the weather.  There were also some great views of Bern from the area.  The show was ok - it basically goes through the history of Bern and shows all the major sites.  

We are heading to Zurich tomorrow for lunch to meet up with an old work friend of mine (Samartha) and her husband.  They live in Uster, just outside of Zurich.  On Sunday, we are planning to go to Lake Thun and Interlaken.  We have a holiday on Monday, so we may spend the night in Interlaken on Sunday.

Sounds like you two are getting around quite a bit. Zurich isn't too far then? Meeting friends for lunch. You're beginning to sound pretty settled now.

So two people dropped out to the German class...how are you and Pam doing?

HEYyyyy Interlaken....there is a neat little cog railway trip out of there that might be interesting. The library in Florida had a video of the train ride. Check it out....something we might want to do. Do you think the Rail Pass will be good on it...or provide a special rate?
