Oh Nooo-ohdley-oohdley-oo!

From Bönigen campsite, across the Brienzer sea

Plan is to head down to Bönigen, just a mile or so east of Interlaken for the weekend, but the TCS campsite that takes camping cheques is fully booked for Friday and Saturday nights. Given the apparent fullness of other sites we passed on the way through Interlaken then it looks like we might have to revise our plans. The reason is that there are expected to be 200,000 visitors to the 28th Swiss Yodelling Festival in Interlaken this weekend. Rats, Brian would have like to have tried an Aplenhorn!

So just the one night in Bönigen in its delightful setting on the Brienzer sea before trundling off to Meringen via Brienz the centre of the woodcarving industry. Some of the visitors brought more luggage than us!
