Thank you Arno, we will make the reservation and buy ticket in either Biel or Thun depending on which place we decide to take this trip from. As I said I have gathered lots of information together and am looking forward to another very varied holiday. We usually manage to combine the more obvious places to visit with some less "touristy" destinations and have found many hidden gems in past visits. We will have to spend a little time sifting through all my research and making some choices before we go or we will need an extra bag just to take it all along!! Will be a different experience anyway this year as instead of 2 weeks half-board in hotel by lake Thun, we have arranged a week B and B in hotel in Biel followed by 2 weeks in an apartment in Thun. So looking forward to buying our own food in Thun's delightful market instead of just admiring the goods as we usually do! Will post a report of what we got up to after we get back in case it gives other visitors some different ideas about what you can do in this lovely country. Thanks to everyone who posts on this forum for their ideas and helpful information. Maggie
