We went to Bern to visit our friends Stefanie and Henriette. We got to go explore the city of Bern and hike in the Swiss alps. Here are the pictures of our adventures.
Bern is named after the bears that inhabited that area. The Bärengraben is a popular destination in Bern where three bears live in celebration of the canton's roots.
Einstein lived for many years in Bern. We went to visit the Einstein Museum and stopped by his old house.
The next day we met with Michelle and headed to Mürren to do some hiking. Here we are hiking away from the train station.
The trails were covered in wild flowers and the weather was foggy and capricious. This made for an exciting and mystical hike.
Hiking from flowering meadow to flowering meadow just puts a smile on your face :)
Up close and personal with the alpine wildflowers. I bet Dyle knows what these are called.
Eventually we found a very traditional Swiss village. Just like I pictured in my imagination!
Let’s put a giant bell on the sheep so we don’t loose it. You can hear animals miles away from the clanking of their bells.
Stefanie could not resist just plopping on the wildflowers!
Behind the clouds laid the summits the virgin and the monk, but the mountain was not letting us seeing them today.
Stefanie, Michelle and Ali decided to have some fun in the playground. They kicked out the four year olds and took over the place!
Couple of cuties!
Eventually we headed back to Mürren and took a cable car with this wonderful view.
After a wonderful hike we took a boat back to the train station. At this time the clouds unleashed some serious rain. I’m glad they waited until we were done hiking.
