Today we had a relatively quiet day. Laura was up all night coughing although after changing sides of the caravan, she slept alot better in my bed. We had breakfast and then made some phone calls home as the "swisscom'' phonebooths were quite cheap. Afterwards we hung around and did 2 loads of washing which seemed to take forever. Whilst waiting for the washing I sat down and watched a little more football on the communal tv whilst Laura laid in bed to res...

We had an early start this morning, 5am! We were hoping to see that yesterdays low clouds had cleared so that our visit to Jungfraujoch would be a nice fine day so we would be able to see for miles. So I walked out of the caravan and I saw.... nothing. It was still too dark to make a decision. So we reset the alarm for 5:30 to try again.

After walking the 10 minutes to the train station we found out that it was going to cost us 40 Swiss Francs to get a return train to a station that is...

We also managed to find a Switzerland backpack for around 25 Euro. This will come in handy. So we headed back to the caravan for ham cheese and tomato sandwichs with German style "english bread". For those of you who havent tried this it is like stale bread and very cake l...

Today was our first travel day and not knowing what to expect was getting the better of both of us. After checking out of our fabulous hostel we made our way round to the bus. Here we met our first BusAbout guide Sheree and our first BusAbout guide Joe. Fortunately for us the all 17 passengers on board were first time BusAbout passengers so Sheree went through everything step by step. We sat at the front of the bus to cure any chance of ill feelings through out...
