Today was our first rest day in Switzerland, and possibly our most restful rest day yet. While we didn't do very much, there were a few highlights worth mentioning.
 |
| For example, there was a bowl of melted chocolate among the jams on offer at the breakfast buffet |
 |
| One of us gave it a go |
We spent a few hours relaxing at the swimming pool complex. Then there was a light lunch before afternoon rest time. Later in the afternoon, we watched a bit of the Tour de Suisse on the TV.
 |
| The TV was showing the first stage of the Tour de Suisse in Einsiedeln, which we had left yesterday |

On our way out to dinner, we took the opportunity to take another of those "then and now" photos.

After such a lazy rest day, we should be well refreshed for the continuation of our walk tomorrow.
