For something different this morning they made us get up early!!!  We started the day with a walk to the river and through some touristy shops before jumping on another little boat on the lake. It was a really nice cruise past little churches on the waters edge and snow capped mountains - we enjoyed most of the cruise inside because it was super cold!

We then headed into the city to check out some swiss watches, hmmmmm if only i had more money.  We strolled around looking at all the nice shops for a bit and eating the BEST hazelnut chocolate in the world, i'll be dreaming about it forever i think!!

We decided to head back to the hotel for a lie down, then i explained to Nat that what was needed here was some 'serious napping' in which i close the blinds so the room is dark, change into my PJs and take the contacs out - this was at 3pm.  At 6:30 we woke up feeling quite pleased with our napping efforts and went to a noodle bar for dinner then headed back for some vodkas!

The one thing that reminded me of switzerland is the movie 'How to lose a guy in 10 days' and kate hudson says 'here we are yodelodeling in switzerland' - i would love to have heard how many times that came out of our mouths whislt there!!!  It was hilarious, guess you had to be there tho!
