Today we had a meeting in Bern, two hours away by train. We went east and then north, and so we were soon in the Swiss-German part of the country. We passed through Gstaad and some amazing valley/mountain views, including my first views of snowy mountains tops (glaciers?) and also the gorgeous lake at Thun and Spiez.
We were in the meeting all day except for lunch where we sat in a park and enjoyed some delicious sandwiches and these adorable little bear cakes-- the bear is for Bern (apparently the origin story of the city involves a bear... I will have to ask once more for an explanation!) We sat under a horse chestnnut tree where from time to time the big chestnuts fell around us... but thankfully not on us.
