Pretty low key day today. We did get down for breakfast, finally, and they had a nice spread. Lauren really enjoyed some pancakes and had everyone in the dining room fawning over her. One of the wait staff brought a high chair for her, then another one saw it was way too big for her, so ran to find a pillow to put behind her back. Very sweet. I enjoyed yogurt with oatmeal. Oooh, and the coffee. They asked if we'd like coffee or tea and I didn't expect much, but they brought a tiny pot of freshly brewed coffee and a medium pitcher of warm milk! I'm making sure we get to breakfast again tomorrow if only for the coffee 😊
Then we packed a bag and headed for Wilderswil, just outside of Interlaken. We'd heard from Michelle and Jason Eigsti that there was a good Italian place there and we figured we needed to go for lunch since dinner would involve two trains home too late for Lauren. So we got to town but without really knowing where we were going, so saw most of the town before we found it. Pizza was really good, view was great. L did great until we got to the train, and it was almost 3, so we decided to come back to nap, swim, and do laundry.
We accomplished 2 of the 3. Lauren napped for a bit, I finished my book. We all went down to the pool to swim. The pool itself was chilly, so we sat in the hot tub, which wasn't hot, more like bath water. L loves splashing but didn't seem all that excited so we didn't stay long. She seemed to enjoy her bath last night more and that doesn't involve all of us getting wet and smelling like chlorine!
After the pool Jeff took a bag of laundry down to the laundromat (aka two machines in an alcove next to a hair salon) only to find there were two people in line in front of him already. We ordered room service again... I keep thinking it will get Lauren to bed earlier, but she ends up eating with us anyway.
Tomorrow we're heading to Lauterbrunnen to walk the valley and see some waterfalls. Probably up to Murren as well. Saturday we're planning on going back up to Mannlichen to hike 25 minutes to the top overlooking Lauterbrunnen. Maybe another short local hike; I think the trains will be busy with the marathon going on.
Jeff took pics on the Nikon today but here are a few from my phone.
