Yesterday afternoon I saw the most heavenly sight from the top of Gurten mountain. The rolling hills and Swiss Alps made my heart race in excitement. We spent over two hours at the top of the mountain just strolling through winding pathways and even taking a nap on a bench under a tree. Well, Ian did as I couldn't bring myself to miss one second of the most peaceful scenery I had ever seen. The pictures can't do this moment justice, but I felt we needed to post them anyway.
The Swiss Alps as the sun was setting over Bern.
The history museum of Bern where a fantastic Einstein section is housed. Einstein discovered the Theory of Relativity in 1905 while living in Bern. In fact, we visited the apartment in which he lived during that time -- the actual living room where he wrote up his paper!
The famous clock tower in Bern, which marked the first gate into the city in the 1200s, with one of the many Medieval fountains that still remain.

Ian, Pat and I attempted to play tennis this past weekend. It was abysmal. We were showed up by a bunch of tween boys and girls in the courts next to us.
I can only begin to imagine how this all experience is changing your lives...enjoy every second of it.
What a wonderful place.
XOXO
P.S. Ian, check your gmail I sent you the camera information and a pic of pulga.
I meant to say whole experience, not all experience. LOL
