Lovely dinner at the Caprice on Wednesday night. I had pork and Val had turbot.

Today we set off for Neuhaus on Lake Thun. It’s a 10 minute bus ride from Interlaken, and a very picturesque spot on a beautiful autumn afternoon.

The steamer calls in a few times a day.

There’s a nice walk back to Interlaken around a golf course and through a nature reserve. We ate our sandwiches and set off. The river Aare runs between Lake Brienz and Lake Thun, but it flows very quickly and it’s too shallow for steamers. A canal has therefore been built from Lake Thun to Interlaken.

A nice walk of about 10 kilometres back to Interlaken Ost station. There’s an ‘Ustrinkete’ at the Caprice tomorrow, so we’ll certainly be going along for the cheap beer and pizza. An Ustrinkete is an end of season booze-up to use up all the beer which would otherwise go out of date during the off-season.
