We took some fun trips within Switzerland in July while our friend Karen was here visiting (and while Elise was at her camp in Germany). First we went to the Rheinfalls. We've been there before, but it had been a while, and it was a lot of fun. This time we took the boat across the river to the lookout point, then walked up to the castle on the other side. We then took the boat ride right up to the falls, where we got a good spray!
After visiting the Rheinfalls we went to one of our favorite towns in Switzerland - Stein am Rhein. It's a medieval town that is absolutely beautiful with its painted buildings in the main square. We also stopped by at the local chocolate shop, which is always very nice!
Another day we went to Luzern and saw the well-known covered bridge. We even ran into the Mormon missionaries on the street there!
Finally, we took a day-trip to Bern, with a stop first in the town of Solothurn. Solothurn is really a pretty town with lots of beautiful old buildings. We even found a street called Barfüssergasse, where Karen and the kids posed barefoot!
