Switzerland Day 1

15/5/16
Sunday

As I mentioned, we were taking a train journey today all the way to Switzerland. We left the hotel early and depart to the Gare de Lyon where we boarded the train.

We first went from pair to Fransce where we had a connection. Then we went to Nauchatel. From there we took a train to Bern.On the whole the train journey was 5 hours. 

We took a taxi to our hotel, 'Ibis Styles' where we would stay for 4 days. Switzerland is an expensive country, so we expected a not so good room. But, fortunately, the room was insanely huge for a hotel room. Right to the entrance was a cupboard and in font of you was a bathroom which was 3-4m long. And left of the entrance was a room with a bed and a sofa which could be made into a bed.

As soon as we came to our room we ate lunch and headed out. We visited some art museum with paintings called Zentrum Paul Klee. Not a very great place and quite expensive but we had a Swiss Pass. On the way back we went to the bear park. But we could spot only one. But the scenery is spectacular and took lots of pics.

We went To the Bear Park too. Unfortunately we didn't see many bears. But, again, the scenery was really good. We also took some ice cream on the way and took a stroll on a street.

Then we headed back to the hotel where we ate dinner. We got some ready to eat Indian food from India which we ate tonight.

Tomorrow I am going to the chocolate factory in Broc and the cheese factory in Gruyères.
