We arrived late in the evening in Interlaken. We stopped buy the hotel board at the train station and got a room. The next morning we awoke to the mountains! We took the train up to Lauterbrunnen where we found out that most of the gondolas were still closed for the season. So we took another train up to the little town of Wengen. We spent some time hiking around Wengen and enjoying some Swiss chocolate ice cream bars. After a good dose of fresh air, we were off to Italy.
