Bern, Switzerland

We took a day trip into Bern, about 40 minutes from Erlach. Pete lives here.

Chronology of Bern's history with bears and the bear pit

Old bear pit. Currently out of commission and a new bear park is being built.

The new bear park being built. The bears will be on the slope on the left hand grassy area with access to a deep water pool. Can't wait to see it next time we visit Bern.
Aare River that runs through Bern.
Morning glories. Inspiration for my garden next year! They're just climbing up string!
