Jake's cousin Pete drove us to Erlach (a small town in Switzerland, 1/2 hour from Bern where Nina (Pete's sister lives) in his little Mini. The trip took 4-5 hours, with stops. It was beautiful along the way, he took the scenic way instead of freeway, well worth the extra hour it took.

Me, Jake and Pete at a stop off at Simplon-Hopschusse. Beautiful scenery, and it was cold!!
Some of the roads we took through the mountains
The roads sometimes went up the mountain in a zig-zag pattern
At one point, we drove onto a train that took us through the mountain for 15 minutes. There are no roads at this part.
