Val had gym this afternoon, but before that we had a stroll around the village. It’s a wonderful autumn day. A few snapshots.
Afterwards we bought hot wurstwegen (sausage rolls) from the bakery for lunch. It was comfortably warm enough to enjoy them on a sunny bench outside the cable car station.
It’s a nice sunny day, but autumn colours are very much in evidence.
It’s time to get the bulbs in. Hopefully the squirrel won’t come and pinch them.
The nice weather should be with us all week.
Val had her usual Monday morning physiotherapy this morning, and this afternoon she went down to the gym at Wilderswil. Somehow, the train completely overshot the station and ended up straddling the crossing.
Coincidentally, Val’s colleague Ryan was also at the gym, trying to aid his recovery from a broken ankle.
And as if all that wasn’t enough, I’ve done something to my shoulder (I’ve no idea how) which means it doesn’t work properly any more, so I’ll be going to the physiotherapist tomorrow afternoon.
At last, the rain has come to an end, and I can wander up to the village without having to dress like a round the world yachtsman.
Needless to say, the waterfalls are all running at full speed. Up at the top there’s been a lot of snow.
The summer season is drawing to a close, and later on Beves and Ibe will play their last gig at the Sunstar.
It’s been raining for almost a week now, and there was no let up today. Last night Ali and Emily came round for dinner. As it’s hunting season, we had venison with lots of vegetables.
We braved the rain earlier and went shopping in Interlaken, but apart from that the only news is that Val has now exceeded 500 kilometres on her exercise bike.
It’s been very wet over the past few days, so we’ve mainly stayed at home. We did get out last night however.
We went down to Tapberne (the pub that used to be the Three Tells) in Matten. From the front, we have Ben and Tanja, Wil and Val, and Ali and me. The pub has transformed itself from an Irish bar into a tapas restaurant. With a party of 6 we could try almost everything on the menu, and it was all delicious. We even managed to get home without getting wet.
This morning the rain had returned. Val had an appointment at the doctors, but apart from that we’ve barely opened the front door all day.
It’s a nice day, and it’ll be even nicer down by the lake. We are heading for Thun, which is our nearest city. It’s a very scenic train journey.
Thun has a very nice old town.
It was just warm enough for lunch by the riverside. There’s a huge choice of restaurants here, and great views whichever way you look.
Steve has a solo gig at the Sunstar tonight, so we’d better go along and make some noise.
