Today was our last full day in Geneva. As I mentioned yesterday, we did not have class today! So a group of us got on the train and went to Bern, the capital of Switzerland. As you can see from the below pictures it SNOWED which made for an amazing train ride.
The Cathedral, although similar to the Cathedral in Geneva, was spectacular. We walked as the choir was rehearsing. It felt like we had just entered into something magical. Anna is from Russia and taught me how to use my scarf to create this neat hat to keep my ears warm. It was rather chilly in Bern!
We also stopped in at Albert Einstein's house! Einstein lived in an apartment at the Kramgasse 49, the site of the Einsteinhaus, from 1903 to 1905, the year in which the Annus Mirabilis Papers were published.
For lunch we at a cute German cafe. I had a bratwurst, some had fish while a couple of brave souls had the Horse meat dish (which they said was the best meat they've ever had!)
Bern is a beautiful city with cobblestone streets! The official language is German. You definately need more than 6 hours to see this beautiful place!
