We had a good dinner in a beer hall last night. At places like this you share a big table with other diners and enjoy huge weinerschnitzels. The beer was pretty good too.

There’s a record player in our hotel room, along with some albums from the 1970s.

We played a few records, but it’s very strange having to turn the record over every 20 minutes or so.

This morning we had a lovely breakfast and set off on a wander around the old town. The Munster dominates everything.

The Rhine divides the city.

The impressive Rathaus (town hall) is undergoing some renovation.

Nevertheless we had a wander around the interior.

This afternoon we popped into a pub for a beer, to find them offering Salcombe pale ale from south Devon. They can’t spell Salcombe though.

Basel is really nice – lots of streets are pedestrianised and although we get complimentary use of the public transport here we didn’t need it at all.
