'Mutton' The profoundly deaf Sheep's Grand European Tour - Day 23


Fondewe for supper

The sheep had another great day in Interlaken.

Early in the morning Mutton and chums took the ferry to Brienz and then the bus to the Swiss life Museum at Ballenberg.

What a great place!  Lots of original buildings carefully demolished and rebuilt in a woodland setting.  Each type of building from different parts of Switzerland are represented in this beautiful landscape.  Many of the buildings are complete with original furniture and fittings.

Many rural and industrial crafts are demonstrated and domesticated animals; pigs, cows, goats and fouls can be seen.  Mutton really enjoyed seeing the goats!



The sheep had a great day watching the bees in their hives, playing with the goats in their shed and eating lots of plums and cream. "The sort of day my old friend Barry would have liked"  thought the sheep.

The day was rounded off with a swiss cheese fondue, crusty bread, red wine, coffee and chocolate...Yum-yum!

Tomorrow, the ewe is resting because on Friday she will return to her East Anglian fold.  After all, she's got a wedding to go to!
