This weekend we did some castle hunting in Thun, Switzerland. It's about an hour and a half from Basel and worth the little drive. This is a little drive for us Americans but a long one for the Swiss. They are astonished by our time spent in cars. All are mortified to hear about JB's minor league baseball road trips that lasted 10 + hours. multiple times a week. yikes.
...
Thun has a gorgeous turquoise lake, authentic swiss architecture, and the town is dotted with fairy tale castles.
I require little more in life.

HAPPY FOURTH OF JULY!

I am loving your outfit and I love Thun too! All of the German speaking portions of Switzerland are beautiful. Have you guys been to the Interlaken area? So pretty.
ReplyDeleteLove Thun. I used to go there quite often, it is basically just around the corner from Bern :) Did you go swimming in the Thuner Lake? happy monday xox
