A little cloudy today but mostly dry for our drive from Vaduz to Interlaken in Switzerland. With the constant back drop of snow capped mountains we made our way, mostly through valleys, so not quite as dramatic as earlier drives but a good bit quicker. We had hoped to take a few stops at the various lakes along the way but it would have meant detours into unknown villages and so we opted to stay on the main road – though we did catch glimpses of Walensee from one of the rest areas on our route…
By mid afternoon we were settled on our Campsite, just outside Interlaken on Lake Thunersee and enjoying an afternoon stroll along the lake….
The east end of Lake Thunersee is a nature reserve with a lovely gravel walkway hugging the shore before heading inland a bit along River Aare….
At the end of the nature reserve we about turned and followed an off shoot of the path out to a viewing point at the end of the lake….
Here we enjoyed a lovely bit of solitude in the sun with just the sounds of birdsong and lapping water and marvelled at the unique shade of blue and clarity of these Alpine waterways before heading back to site along the way we came….
