30 July Grindelwald






Last time we went to Interlaken, I took Analyn over the Furka and Grimselpasses, so, this time I took her over the Sustenpass. As you can see in the picture, the glacier on the top is dramatically smaller than it was six years ago when I first saw it. It used to almost reach the lake.

I also finally found the town where Marianne and Wälle used to live. They often referred to a town I thought they called “Wille.” I had never been able to find it so this time I got exact directions from Wälle. Sure enough, the town was right where he said it was, it was just called “Wyler.” Nice place, you should visit sometime.

Analyn was fascinated with Grindelwald. It is a cute town, if a bit touristy. She found us a very nice hotel, and, after sleeping on the too short bed in the studio for too long, it was great to be able to sleep. Plus it was kind of refreshing for it to get cold at night. For dinner we went whole hog on the Swiss experience. We followed up our fondue with cheese-covered potatoes and Cervelat and I got some hefeweizen. I slept like a stone.
