Day 1
Caught an 8 a.m. flight from Barcelona to Geneva, slept
Took a 2-hour long train from Geneva to Bern, marveled at the rolling hills, lakes and story book houses
Checked into our hostel, enjoyed a Swiss sandwich
Chatted with a young German-born Swiss about the realities of America and country living
Got to the Bern LDS Temple to find it closing for the day
Hopped on a bus — city travel is free for tourists — and explored town
Ate McDonalds and didn’t feel guilty about it
Tasted gas water and hated it
Returned to the hostel, slept for 10 hours straight

Day 2
Made it to the temple on time
(Keri) met a wonderful, chatty woman who offered her own homecooking if we ever made it to her hometown of Interlaken
(Lance) met and befriended two missionaries
We took the missionaries to lunch – their choice: McDonalds
Felt guilty about never tasting the country’s specialty foods
Returned to the city, wandered through the Old Town and started the ever long trek to Germany
