TGIF


Off to Interlaken later after breakfast for the upcoming Red Bull Air Race, being the first time that the race is held in this country, there's definitely gotta be loads of spectators attending. We've decided that its wiser to head there a day before just in case that the camp site is fully taken. Fingers crossed that the weather would be better than the past few days.

Today's picture of the day was taken from a graffiti I saw in town, on the wall of a back alley. Whoever the artist is, thumbs up, ya doing a great job. Hope you dun mind coz I've just used it as my msn avatar.

Swiss Canine (Part III)

The weather has been pretty unpredictible for the past few days, rain, sun and before you know it, it started spitting again. I shouldn't be complaining, at least its not as bad as England.
More canines from Berne, and encountered a road kill. This young bloke speeding down the alley in his lil smart car, the previous drivers slowed down for the pigeons on the road, I can't see why he has to be any different. No, he couldn't give a damn, the poor bird struggled and died after a few seconds, its just heart breaking. The security guard had to clean up the mess. Such an animal loving country,.... sigh, guess there's always one or two black sheeps that spoilt things for everyone.

Upgrade

We moved from the hostel to a hotel nearer to the shops. It cost a whopping 320 franks per night. Not complaining coz we are not the one footing the bill lol.

Ferry Ride

We were getting bored staying in, so hopped onto a train and ended up in town. Since our train passes covers the ferry rides, we had a go. Yup, I'm getting lazy, so here's a random selection of pictures. If the strawberry which Moo is carrying is actually made of nothing but pure sugar, sigh. But it does taste yummy though.

Sinfully Delicious

Chocolate shopping is so fun *evil laugh*. Sinful? Who cares, I've been burning all those calories shopping that these goodies won't be doing that much of a harm anymore.

Swiss Canines

Swiss canines I believe all leads a good life. They get to go everywhere with their owners, unlike where I came from. Here, they get to go on train, bus and tram rides for free, most restuarants welcome them, they get to go into shopping malls, and even the airport. There's even fountains for pets, fresh from the alps.
