Jenny & Loren Joined Me ...




Grandson Castle dates back to Medaeval times, but most of it's construction is from 1400s.

There is an excellent Vehicle display within, which includes Churchill's Austen Cambridge ...

and this rather fun tricycle.






Nearby, equally ancient, St.John's has several Mediaeval capitols in which the stone mason's sense of humour, once obscured by shadows, can now easily be seen.



Traditional Swiss fare. Willy, the Raclatteur grills the cheese and serves it a slice at a time accompanied by cold meats, potatoes, pickles and plenty of crisp white wine.
Swiss whites are particuarly light and dry as their second fermentation takes place in the bottle (and not in one's tummy) making them easily digestable and very drinkable.
